1. The specification for VA rating may sometimes be exceeded for less sensitive (higher AT) switches, and should be
decreased for very sensitive (lower AT) switches. Standex-Meder Electronics will run life tests specific to a customer’s
load upon request.
2. Switch leakage current is limited to 100 microamperes
