Abstract
An insulating switch base with a top, bottom and an edge has openings through the top and one edge for a conductor. A conductive switch lead frame has proximal ends with insulation displacement connectors bent in the openings. A resilient member on the frame has a moveable contact and is conductively associated with a connector. A contoured arm on the frame is distal of, but conductive with, another connector. The arm is spaced from the resilient member as an open contact capable of momentary engagement. A frangible area on each frame is between the resilient member and the arm. Recesses in the top support retain the frame. A slot and barbs on each connector receive one conductor securely in an opening after aligned installation in an opening, seating of the frame in its recess and severing the area over a passage in the base. A membrane attaches over the frame and a molding is applied about the membrane leaving the resilient member open.
