Plug-in element lever switch
Product Code : SCL-EI-10622
The Plug-in Element Lever Switch from Lab Glassware Manufacturer, a scientific and educational equipment manufacturer based in Ambala, Haryana, India, since 1982, is a modular electrical switch used for making and breaking circuits in school physics experiments, electronics training boards, and STEM kits. It is supplied to schools, colleges, and institutional buyers across India and exported to countries including Nigeria, Ghana, Senegal, and Ivory Coast as part of the company's West Africa science-education supply.
Quick answer: The Plug-in Element Lever Switch inserts directly into a compatible modular circuit board or teaching panel, letting students move a lever between open and closed positions to control current flow. It is used to teach circuit continuity and switching action without permanent wiring, making it a fast-to-set-up addition to school electricity lessons.

- Useful for individual practical work, group demonstrations, and STEM activities.
- Designed for supervised educational use with correctly rated low-voltage circuits.
Applications / Uses
- Teaching open and closed circuits in school physics laboratories.
- Controlling current flow in low-voltage electricity experiments.
- Using lamps, buzzers, motors, and meters in circuit demonstrations.
- Building modular circuits on plug-in teaching boards.
- STEM activities on electrical control and basic switching systems.
How to Use the Plug-in Element Lever Switch
- Check the confirmed voltage and current rating before connecting the switch.
- Insert the plug-in switch into the compatible circuit board or teaching panel.
- Connect the circuit load, such as a lamp, buzzer, motor, or meter.
- Move the lever to the closed position to complete the circuit.
- Move the lever to the open position to interrupt current flow.
- Disconnect the power supply before removing or changing circuit components.
Safety note: Use the Plug-in Element Lever Switch only within its confirmed electrical rating. Do not connect it directly to mains electricity unless the complete circuit is designed and verified by a qualified instructor or technician.
Care & Maintenance
- Keep the plug-in contacts clean, dry, and free from dust or corrosion.
- Do not force the lever beyond its normal operating position.
- Inspect the housing and contacts before classroom use.
- Store the switch in a labelled dry box with other circuit components.
Building a Modular Circuit Board Set
The Plug-in Element Lever Switch is designed to work with modular teaching boards. Pair it with the Plug-in Board for Building Components to build a complete, rewireable circuit layout, and compare lever-based switching with a press-to-operate design using the Push Button Switch Module or the more general Switches Based On range.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Plug-in Element Lever Switch used for?
A Plug-in Element Lever Switch is used to make or break a circuit in school electricity experiments. It helps students observe how a switch controls current flow in a simple circuit.
Is this lever switch suitable for school students?
Yes. It is suitable for supervised school physics and STEM experiments when used with compatible low-voltage circuits and teaching boards.
Can it be used with bulbs and buzzers?
Yes, it can be used with compatible lamps, buzzers, motors, and meters, provided the connected load does not exceed the confirmed switch rating.
What does plug-in element mean?
Plug-in element means the switch is designed to be inserted into a compatible modular circuit board or teaching panel, rather than wired permanently into a circuit.
Is the switch SPST or SPDT?
The contact arrangement — SPST, SPDT, or another configuration — is confirmed on the product listing; check before ordering.
What details should be confirmed before purchase?
Confirm voltage rating, current rating, contact arrangement, plug-in connector style, compatible board type, quantity, and whether accessories are included.
