[QUOTE="Sidewinder, post: 443243, member: 9512"] Not sure I can quote two of you, I normally mess it up. I do appreciate the ideas, I am just amazed that what I describe as a 3 pole em light test switch is not available. We had gone down the key switch route, with a Schneider key actuator (Think Ronis 455), and 3 NO contacts, but, you can't fit 3 side by side, only two, the middle aspect is for button illumination, and will not actuate a contact block, so it needs to be two stacked which will need a box about 80-100 mm deep, that's a deep box for a one gang plate. I have a couple of those rotary cam switches kicking around, they are just so deep, the same as the normal push button contact option. The last thought we had when rummaging around the workshop stores earlier, was a Schneider box with the contact blocks mounted on a rail at the back of the box. Such as the ZENL, which I think I can put 3 side by side, and get a 2 position stay put key remove in two positions key actuator, these would fit in a standard single PB box I believe. I am simply flabbergasted that the perfect device does not exist, and I think that there is a market for it. Thanks for all the suggestions. [/QUOTE]
