Latchable interlock switch

摘要

A latchable interlock switch that can be installed under a cover of a process machine for shutting off a power supply to the machine when the cover is removed is disclosed. The switch can also be latched into a permanently engaged position so that the power supply to the machine remains on even when the cover has been removed to perform a repair or maintenance procedure. The interlock switch may optionally be provided with an indicator lamp to indicate the on/off state of the switch.
