This switch is typically designed for appliance doors; it is Normally Closed (NC), meaning the light stays ON until the door pushes the plunger in, which then breaks the circuit to turn the light OFF.

-
🔧 What size hole do I need to drill for mounting?
-
This switch is designed for standard snap-in mounting. Please measure the diameter of the body below the flared collar to determine the exact drill bit size required for your panel.
