A high-current pushbutton switch is a specialized electromechanical device that’s capable of handling significant electrical currents while connecting or disconnecting a power source from a load. This type of pushbuttons plays a crucial role in managing high currents while also protecting circuits from damage.
High-current pushbuttons are used across a multitude of industries (industrial, medical, transportation, agricultural, etc.) and have a variety of practical applications. Below, you’ll find E-Switch’s most popular selection of high-current pushbutton switches.
