Cres Cor 0808-116-K Rocker Switch 7/8" X 1-1/2" DPST 20A 120-240V

A panel-mounted electrical control switch like this is used to turn commercial equipment on and off while controlling power to internal parts. Made as a DPST (double-pole single-throw) rocker switch, it controls two circuits at once, helping make sure power is distributed correctly. It fits a standard 7/8" x 1-1/2" panel opening and has four 1/4" tab terminals for secure wiring connections. Rated for 125/277V and 20 amps, it works well with equipment that needs reliable switching under normal commercial electrical use. Often found in foodservice equipment like warmers, coffee machines, ovens, and griddles, this switch is important for daily use by allowing controlled start and stop. If a switch wears out or stops working, it can cause power problems or equipment to act unpredictably. Replacing it helps bring back proper electrical control, letting the unit work as it should in kitchens, cafeterias, and service areas where reliable switching is needed.
