Depended upon the position of the switch, the ball may contact only the hollow cylindrical conductor or it may also contact a second conductor to complete a circuit between the two conductors. The cylindrical conductor and ball are enclosed in a two-part insulating housing, including a hollow member having one closed end, and a cap for closing the open end of the hollow member. Electrical leads are connected to the two conductors through the closed end of the hollow housing member.
