Isolated Circuits in 10 and 16 Positions
Each position is a single isolated circuit, which
connects the two terminals across the switch
package. The movable contact is non-shorting.
SP/10 Positions, and SP/16 Postions
All contacts on one side of the switch are internally
bussed for a common pole. Any terminal on that
side may be used as a common, the others may
be clipped. The movable contact is non-shorting.
