  • Do not use low-quality wires or electrical products, that may damage your circuit

35. How does a 25mm momentary push button switch works?

The 25mm momentary push switch (also known as the non-latching push button switch) works only when you press the push button.

It makes a temporary change in the circuit when you press the push button.

When you release the button, it goes back to its actual position with the help of spring.

And the circuit also goes back to its actual position.

A 25mm momentary push button can be in two states; push to make and push to break.

A ‘push to make’ momentary push button switch is NO switch.

This means when you press the push button, it connects to the circuit and electrical flow starts in the circuit.

As a result, the application starts working.

Depressing the push button will turn off the circuit.

You can see its electrical symbol below:

Figure 18 - Electric symbol of push-to-make 25mm push button switch

Electric symbol of push-to-make 25mm push button switch

A ‘push to break’ momentary push button switch is an NC switch.

In its default position, the electrical circuit connected and the device is running.

Pressing the push button will break the circuit.

And the device or application will stop working.

When you release the button, it will make the electrical circuit again.

Push to break momentary push button switch has very little use in the market.

You can see its electrical symbol below:

Figure 19 - Electric symbol of push-to-break 25mm push button switch

Electric symbol of push-to-break 25mm push button switch

36. How does a 25mm latching push button switch works?

The 25mm latching push button switch works at the opposite method from the momentary horn switch.

The 25mm lockable push button maintains its position when you press or release the push button.

It can also become up with a ‘push to make’ or ‘push to break’ state.

Actuating the push button each time will change its state i.e. from ‘push to make’ to ‘push to break’ or from ‘push to break’ to ‘push to make’ state.

37. What is the difference between a toggle switch and a push button switch?

Toggle switches can be activated by a switch calculated in one of at least two positions.

Most of the toggle switches will stop in any of their switch positions, while others have an inside spring system restoring the switch to a specific typical position, considering what is designated “momentary” activity

The electrical symbol of the toggle switch is below:

Figure 20 - Electrical symbol of toggle switch

Electrical symbol of a toggle switch

The Push button switch works in two positions.

It latches between two positions with the use of spring.

Pressing and depressing the push button will change the position of the electrical circuit.

The electrical symbol of the push button switch is below:

38. What is a maintained 25mm push button switch?

A maintained 25mm push button switch shuffles its position when activated, and stays on that position until you actuate it again.

A maintained 25mm push button switch is used at the places where long term operating of any specific function is required.

For example, operating any industrial machine, light, fire alarm, etc.

42. Can a 25mm push button switch come up with DPDT?

The double pole double throw (DPDT) switch can be used for multiple functioning.

It has six terminals and two separate terminals for LED.

DODT is the merger of two SPDT switches.

In this way, two separate electrical circuits can be controlled with one 25mm DPDT push button switch.

It can come up with 1NO1NC or 2NO2NC options.

The circuit of the DPDT switch is as below:

43. How to wire an SPDT, SPST, and DPDT circuit with a 25mm push button switch?

You can circuit the SPDT, SPST, and DPDT 25mm push button switches in multiple ways as per your usage requirements.

In the following demo video, you can see the wiring of SPDT, SPST, and DPDT switches and their function.

You can also modify its wiring according to your requirements.

Rules of wiring of all these switches are the same in push button switches, toggle switches, or any other switches.

44. Can a 25mm push button switch be used in safety applications?

As you know that 25mm push button switch is used at high voltage applications and circuits.

So, there is no issue in using the 25mm push button switch in safety applications.

It has strong resistance against heat, water, and vandalism.

You can use the 25mm push button switch as an emergency push button switch at public spaces like hospitals, schools, office buildings, parks, etc.

You can use it as a fire alarm as well.

It can be used in harsh weather as well.

45. Can a 3-way switch be used as a single-pole 25mm push button switch?

Yes, you can use a 3-way switch as a single-pole 25mm push button switch.

You can just convert your 3-way switch into the single-pole 25mm push button switch.

First of all, you have to connect the wires to the one traveler terminal.

Just disconnect the wire from another traveler terminal and leave it blank.

After removing the traveler wire, just install the wire connecter on it and the other side of that wire will be on the load side.

Then, to the other traveler wire, connect the 3-way switch common wire, to supply switched line voltage to the light and install a blank cover. See the below diagram:

Then remove the 3-way switch from the line side box. Connect the line wire to one of the traveler wires using a wire connector, to supply line voltage to the 3-way switch in the load side box. To make the other traveler free, install a wire connector on it. And then install a blank cover on the box.

Remove the traveler spare wire from the switch in the load side box, and then attach a wire connector to it. See the below diagram:

46. How to test the 25mm push button switch before installing it?

You can test the 25mm push button switch in four steps.

Step 1:

Turn on the multimeter and select the ohmmeter function.

The resistance range should be ‘x1’.

If the ohmmeter has auto range capability then you can skip this step.

Figure 28 - Test switch ohm meter

Test switch ohm meter

Step 2:

Insert the leads into the meter and touch the probe tips with each other to check whether the meter is working or not.

If the meter shows 1 or less in the display, it means the meter is working fine.

If it shows some other figures, just change the ohmmeter.

Figure 29 - Testing the ohm meter

Step 3:

Connect the red lead to one terminal and the black lead to another terminal of your push button switch and turn ON the push button switch.

If the ohmmeter displays 1 or less, it means the push button switch is perfectly ON.

Step 4:

Put your push button switch at the OFF position.

If the display shows ‘OL’ or high frequency, it means the push button switch is perfectly OFF.

You can test your 25mm push button switch several times in the same way.

If it gives the same results, you can install it with confidence.
