I don't know if knife switches are allowed in lower voltage systems. I suggest you talk to your local code inspectors to find out if they'll allow this switch in a code-approved DC installation in the way you plan to use it. No UL might mean no code signoff, which means no fire insurance, even if the switch would be better than the stuff you can buy for the big bux.
(On the other hand if they WILL allow it for 50 volts and below I'd MUCH rather have that shroud than an exposed knife switch. Much less likely to have a nasty short if something gets dropped on it.)[ Parent ]
