AccessoriesIn the context of switches, accessories are additional components or items that are used in conjunction with a switch to enhance its functionality or convenience. Some common examples of switch accessories include actuators, which are used to activate the switch; caps, which are used to protect the switch from dirt, moisture, or other environmental hazards; and indicator lights, which are used to visually indicate the state of the switch.
Switch accessories can be used to customize a switch for a specific application or environment, or to add features that are not included in the basic switch design. For example, a switch with an illuminated actuator can be used in a dark environment, while a switch with a waterproof cap can be used in an outdoor or marine application. Switch accessories may also be used to repair or replace damaged or worn parts of a switch, such as a broken actuator or a missing cap.
