FAQs
What types of high-performance electrical switches do you supply in Luttrell?
Our inventory covers the full spectrum of industrial and commercial switching needs. We stock heavy-duty toggle and rocker switches, precision micro-switches, rotary selector switches, push-button momentary and maintained models, illuminated indicators, emergency-stop mushroom heads, and DIN-rail safety interlock switches. Products range from 1 A logic-level devices up to 600 A power disconnects and are available in AC, DC, and dual-rated versions to suit virtually any application.
How do I choose the correct switch for my application?
Start by defining the electrical load: voltage (AC or DC), steady-state current, and inrush current. Match those values to the switch’s rated voltage and current. Next, consider the operating environment—temperature range, exposure to dust or liquids, vibration, and required mechanical life cycles. Finally, verify form factor and actuation style (toggle, push-button, rotary) to ensure proper ergonomics and panel fit. Our engineers are available to review your schematic or specification sheet and recommend the best option.
Are your switches compliant with national and international standards?
Yes. Most of our cataloged switches carry UL and cUL listings for North America, CE marking for the European Economic Area, and many are TÜV-certified for functional safety. Where applicable, we also provide IEC 60947-, IEC 61058-, and NEMA-rated devices, along with RoHS and REACH declarations. Certificates of Conformance (C of C) and third-party test reports can be supplied with each shipment upon request.
Can your switches withstand harsh environments and what IP ratings are available?
For outdoor, marine, or wash-down areas, we offer sealed switches with IP65, IP67, and IP69K ingress protection. Housings are molded from UV-stable thermoplastics or corrosion-resistant stainless steel, and seals are made of silicone or fluorosilicone for chemical resistance. Operating temperature ranges span –40 °C to +125 °C, and many models pass 50 g shock and 10 g vibration tests per MIL-STD-202.
Do you offer customization or panel integration services?
Absolutely. We can supply switches with custom actuator colors, laser-etched legends, back-lit icons, or special termination styles (screw, PCB, wire-lead, or quick-connect). For OEMs, we build turn-key control panels that integrate switches, breakers, indicators, and wiring harnesses, all factory-tested and serialized. Minimum order quantities for custom work start at 50 pieces, with prototypes available in as little as 3–4 weeks.
What lead times and support services do you provide to customers in Luttrell?
Standard catalog items ship the same day from our Knoxville distribution center when ordered before 3 p.m. EST. Non-stock or custom configurations typically ship in 2–4 weeks. We offer free local delivery to Luttrell businesses, 24-hour expedited service for critical downtime situations, and on-site technical assessments. Lifetime application support is included, giving you direct access to our electrical engineers for troubleshooting and future upgrades.
