ABSTRACT:
A three-way switch is composed of a base, an amature member, at least three conductive pieces, and a diode. The base is provided with a receiving space for housing the amature member, the conductive pieces, and the diode. The amature member is fastened with a bridging conductive member such that the armature member is provided with a plurality of bridging portions and an insulation portion, which are in contact with the contact ends of the conductive pieces. The first and the third conductive pieces bring about a power input while the second conductive piece brings about a power output. The diode is connected with the first and the third conductive pieces.
