Precautions for Correct Use of Pushbutton Switches
●For the individual precautions for a Switch, refer to the precautions in the section for that Switch.
Electrical Characteristics
1. Operating Load
Inrush Current
Type of Load vs. Inrush Current
The switching load capacity of the Switch greatly varies between
AC and DC. Always be sure to apply the rated load. The control
capacity will drastically drop if it is a DC load. This is because a DC
load has no current zero-cross point, unlike an AC load. Therefore,
if an arc is generated, it may continue for a comparatively long time.
Furthermore, the current direction is always the same, which
results in a contact relocation phenomena whereby the contacts
easily stick to each other and do not separate when the surfaces of
the contacts are uneven.
Some types of load have a great difference between normal current
and inrush current. Make sure that the inrush current is within the
permissible value. The greater the inrush current in the closed circuit
is, the greater the contact abrasion or shift will be. Consequently,
contact weld, contact separation failures, or insulation failures may
result. Furthermore, the Switch may be broken or damaged.
If the load is inductive, counter-electromotive voltage will be generated.
The higher the voltage is, the higher the generated energy will be,
which will increase the abrasion of the contacts and contact relocation
phenomena. Be sure to use the Switch within the rated conditions.
Approximate control capacities are given in ratings tables, but
these alone are insufficient to guarantee correct operation. For
special types of load, with unusual switching voltage or current
waveforms, test whether correct operation is possible with the
actual load before application.
When switching for microloads (voltage or current), use a Switch
with microload specifications. The reliability of silver-plated
contacts, which are used in Switches for standard loads, will be
insufficient for microloads.
When switching microloads or very high loads that are beyond the
switching capacity of the Switch, connect a relay suitable for the load.

Technical Guide for Pushbutton Switches
All the performance ratings given are for operation under the following
conditions unless otherwise specified.
Inductive load: A minimum power factor of 0.4 (AC) and a maximum
Lamp load:
Motor load: An inrush current 6 times higher than the steady-state
Note: Inductive loads can cause problems especially in DC circuitry. Therefore,
2. Load Connections
Do not contact a single Switch to two power supplies that are different
in polarity or type.
Connection of Different Polarities
The power supply may short-circuit if the loads are connected in the
way shown in the "incorrect" example below.
Even in the "correct" example, note that the insulation performance of
the switch may deteriorate and the switch life may be shortened
because loads are connected to both contacts.
Connection of Different Power Supplies
The DC and AC power may be mixed for the circuit shown below.
Do not design a circuit where voltage is imposed between contacts,
otherwise contact weld may result.
