Base plate with switch in housing 3A Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India

Product Code : SCL-EI-10672

The Base Plate Switch 3A is a physics and electronics laboratory switching component used for opening, closing, and controlling current flow in supervised electrical circuit experiments. It is suitable for schools, colleges, STEM labs, electronics trainer systems, physics practical rooms, distributors, and educational laboratory procurement buyers.

Product Description

The Base plate with switch in housing 3A from Lab Glassware Manufacturer is intended for classroom circuits where a mounted switch is required on a stable base plate. The supplied product name confirms a housed switch format and 3 A current rating, but the voltage rating, switch type, housing material, terminals, and dimensions must be confirmed before final catalogue publication.

A base plate switch allows students to make and break an electrical circuit in a controlled way. It can support practical lessons on open circuits, closed circuits, series circuits, parallel circuits, lamp control, motor control, polarity testing, current flow, and basic circuit safety.

Key Features

• 3 A switch rating: supplied product name confirms a 3 A current rating.
• Base plate mounting: provides a stable format for bench-top classroom circuit experiments.
• Switch in housing: enclosed switch design helps keep switching action organized during practical work.
• Educational circuit use: suitable for school physics, electronics, STEM, and trainer-board experiments.
• Capacity not applicable: this is an electrical switching apparatus, not a liquid-volume product.
• Reusable classroom component: useful for repeated supervised demonstrations and student practicals.
• Specification-dependent safety: voltage rating, AC/DC use, insulation, terminals, and certification must be verified.

How to Use the Base Plate Switch 3A

1. Confirm the voltage rating, AC/DC suitability, terminal layout, and switch type before use.
2. Place the switch module on a dry, stable, insulated laboratory bench.
3. Inspect the housing, base plate, terminals, switch action, and insulation for damage.
4. Connect the switch in series with the load and power supply according to the experiment diagram.
5. Use a suitable low-voltage supply and keep the circuit current within 3 A.
6. Operate the switch to open and close the circuit.
7. Observe the lamp, motor, meter, buzzer, or circuit response.
8. Switch off the supply before changing connections or replacing components.

Safety note: Do not exceed the 3 A rating. Do not connect this product to mains electricity unless its voltage rating, insulation, housing, terminals, and certification are verified for mains use. Use teacher supervision, dry hands, insulated leads, and correctly rated loads.

Care & Maintenance

• Store the switch module dry and away from dust, heat, and moisture.
• Keep terminals clean and secure for reliable circuit contact.
• Do not force the switch lever or operate it with damaged wiring.
• Remove from use if the housing cracks, terminals loosen, contacts spark excessively, or overheating marks appear.
