ABSTRACT:
A single pole electrical switch of relatively thin overall dimension has a rocker provided on an off center axis in the circuit breaker housing, which rocker is adapted to slide a moveable contact across the upper ends of the fixed contacts to achieve opening and closing of these contacts. The moveable contact in the off position is spaced from one of the end walls of the switch case housing to allow provision for a third fixed terminal in a stepped portion of the bottom wall. The upper end of this third terminal is located in close proximity to the rocker so as to afford electrical connection with a resistor or other component of the lamp circuitry provided in the rocker.
