A Z-directed switch component is mountable within the thickness of the PCB having a conductive trace on at least one of a top surface and bottom surface thereof, at least one internal layer having an internal conductive trace between the top and bottom surfaces and a mounting hole passing through the conductive traces on at least two of the top surface, the bottom surface and the at least one internal layer of the PCB. The Z-directed switch component comprises an insulative body having a top surface, a bottom surface and side surface, a length L, and a cross-sectional shape that is insertable into the mounting hole in the PCB. The side surface has a channel disposed therein extending toward the top and bottom surfaces. A compressive conductive member is disposed in and along the channel and having a portion thereof extending out beyond the side surface of the body. A turning structure on one of the top and bottom surfaces of the body for rotating the body when inserted into the mounting hole, wherein, with the Z-directed switch inserted into the mounting hole, the compressive conductive member electrically interconnects the conductive traces on at least two of the top surface, the bottom surface and the internal layer when rotated into alignment therewith.
