Abstract
A sub-miniature, two position, double pole switch has flat, terminals of rectangular cross section with projecting portions, bent at right angles to the portions inside the case, and having blades of reduced dimensions for insertion in the circular apertures of a modular printed circuit board. The inner portions of the flat terminals, and the dual rockers are separated by an insulator member having an elongated tongue groove for slidably receiving a tongue on the insulated tip of the spring pressed handle. The tongue and groove means prevents arcing, twisting and uneven closing of the switch.
