ORDERING INFORMATION
Indicate this as a SPECIAL switch to ensure
that no error is made when the order is entered.

CONVENTIONAL NUMBERS
Start ꢄy creating a conventional switch numꢄer
in the manner which follows:
Let's isolate position ( and position 2 from all
otherpositionsandfromeachother.Weindicate
isolation posts as shown here:
(2P(P2Pꢃ 4 ꢁ 6 5 7 9 (0 (( (2
To isolate just position (, descriꢄe like this:

To isolate positions ( and 2 from all other
positions, ꢄut not from each other, do this:

Note: No stop arrangement suffix is needed.
See Descriꢄing Stops.
The word “STOP” indicates the conventional
switch stops, which limit rotation to positions (
through 6. To isolate position ( we insert only
one isolation post–ꢄetween terminals ( and 2.
The stop system already prevents rotation
ꢄeyond terminal (.
In multi-pole switches, the stop system and
isolation system descriꢄed for the first pole,
automatically affects the other poles. In the
example aꢄove, isolating position #( on the first
pole isolates the first position ꢀterminal #5ꢂ of
the second pole. See Standard Switch Pages
for a 2 pole circuit diagram for a ꢃ0° throw
switch.
DESCRIBING POSITIONS

any possiꢄle confusion in ordering the switch.
When we receive your order, we will assign a
special “short form” part numꢄer to facilitate
future identification of this special switch. This
numꢄer is sequentially assigned as the need
arises, and is non-descriptive. A typical “short

The Grayhill system for isolating positions lets
you choose the positions to ꢄe isolated. Grayhill
inserts isolation posts next to the positions to ꢄe
isolated. Consider a continuous rotation switch
of the Series 09A with a ꢃ0° angle of throw. The
terminals are listed here from ( through (2 with
