ABSTRACT:
The disclosed one piece self-locking switch contact member is arranged to mount on the handle of a printed circuit board. The switch member functions as a movable switch contact which is operable from the user's finger pressure to electrically connect together two test terminals located in an aperture of the handle. The switch member is made of a resilient dielectric material having an open loop end arranged for a snap-on lock mounting between the aperture and an edge of the handle. The other end of the switch member contains an electrical contact area and is cantilevered by the mounting to provide a resilient movement which permits contact with the test terminals when acted upon by finger pressure.
