30 mm 2-position selector switch
The Dayton 30G308 is a non-illuminated selector switch with a 30 mm mounting diameter and a black extended lever operator. It provides two maintained positions with a 1NO/1NC contact configuration for controlling industrial circuits. The switch is rated for 10A at 600V AC and 2.5A at 600V DC, carrying NEMA A600/Q600 contact ratings. Its IP65 and NEMA 4, 13 ratings suit demanding panel environments.
Upgrade from momentary or single-contact switches
This maintained-action switch replaces momentary operators that require constant pressure to hold a circuit state. It also upgrades basic on-off toggles by adding a second contact block for simultaneous make and break functions. The jump is worth it when a panel design needs a positive stay-put position in both settings and a higher 600V AC rating than standard pilot devices provide. The zinc bezel and metal basic material add durability over all-plastic alternatives.
Check panel cut-out and voltage compatibility
Verify that the enclosure provides a standard 30 mm cut-out and sufficient depth for the contact block behind the panel. Confirm the control circuit voltage does not exceed 600V AC or 600V DC and that the 10A AC or 2.5A DC rating covers the connected load. Ensure the wiring scheme matches the XO at position A and OX at position B contact operations. The Cam E cam profile must suit the intended sequence if the switch is ganged with others.

Questions about this item
What panel cut-out diameter does the 30 mm selector switch require?
The operator is designed for a standard 30 mm panel cut-out.
How is the maintained 2-position switch wired, and what mistake should be avoided?
Wire the 1NO/1NC contacts to the Cam E configuration; the common error is swapping the XO and OX position wiring.
When should the IP65-rated operator be inspected or replaced?
Inspect the seal and contacts if moisture ingress occurs or after the 10 A AC rating is regularly approached.
