In the momentary On position the circuit stays closed only while the rocker is held, then springs back to Off when released, making it suited to horn and windshield wiper circuits where a press-and-hold action is wanted. The switch is rated for 20 amps at 12 volts DC and 15 amps at 24 volts DC, covering the electrical loads found in typical boat 12V and 24V systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHoused in black plastic with stainless steel contacts, the 8292 is vibration, shock, thermoshock, moisture, and salt spray resistant, and carries an IP54 ingress protection rating for use in wet helm and cockpit locations. It meets UL 1500 and ISO 8846 external ignition protection requirements, the standard for switches installed near gasoline engines and fuel systems on board. The switch is a panel-mount design manufactured specifically to install into Blue Sea Systems water resistant Contura panels and Contura switch mounting panels, keeping a consistent look and water seal across a boat's switch panel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Blue Sea Systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8292\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSwitch Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e SPST (Single Pole Single Throw)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Off-(On) Momentary\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMax Operating Current:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20 Amps @ 12 Volts DC, 15 Amps @ 24 Volts DC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eContact Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIngress Protection Rating:\u003c\/strong\u003e IP54\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCertifications:\u003c\/strong\u003e UL 1500, ISO 8846\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMounting Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Panel Mount, for Contura Water Resistant Panels and Contura Switch Mounting Panels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2 x 5 x 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.09 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 632085082925\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTypical Applications:\u003c\/strong\u003e Horn, Windshield Wipers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does Off-(On) mean on the Blue Sea Systems 8292 switch?\u003c\/strong\u003e Off-(On) is a momentary action: the switch stays in the Off position at rest, and the circuit only closes while the rocker is pressed and held, springing back to Off as soon as it is released.
