Replacement heater switch

[Dave CParticipant @davec87625]

Not strictly workshop heating however my daughters electric heater broke today. The rocker switch rocks loosely with no positive locking in either position.

I have the details and have searched the web but cannot find an exact copy matching the details on the original switch without slight differences in Amperage one way or another.

I need a KCD3 ENC1

16A 250 VAC, 10A 125 VAC T105

I can find 16A 250VAC but then only 20A 125VAC.

It appears the original switch is just broken internally and so I am hoping a direct replacement will do the trick.

Would anybody know of a source for a replacement or best to leave well alone. The switch is approximately 10 x 25mm where inserted with 3 spade connections.

There is a small light on the switch also.

Many thanks

Dave

Dave , the 16A 250vac switch you have found will be a suitable replacement.

Hi Dave,

As you are UK based any 16A 250VAC rated rocker switch will be suitable.

That is a standard size (originally 1" x 3/8&quot illuminated or not and you should be able to find one.
