    Cam Switches

    Cam switches are a type of electrical switch operated by rotation. Cam switches allow the user to turn a knob or shaft that increases or decreases the resistance conducted through the contacts depending on the direction of the turn. Cam switches are an ideal alternative to more conventional toggle or slide switches when the number of circuits or electrical states in a circuit requiring control exceeds the capability of toggle and slide switches.As their name implies, rotary switches function by means of circular rotation around a central rotor. They can stop in a number of different actuation positions, turning different circuits on or off or increasing or decreasing the value of the circuit. Some rotary switches can be configured to control multiple contacts simultaneously at a single switch position.
