FAQ:

1. What is a momentary toggle switch or self-locking toggle switch?

Momentary: The switch has an internal spring mechanism, when you actuated the lever and leave hand, the lever will return to original position.

Self-locking: When you actuated the lever, it will remain in that position you pushed to, and you need to actuated again to back to original position, such as an ON/OFF function.

2. What is the SPST switch?

SPST means Single Pole Single Throw. The SPST switch has only one input and can only be connected to one output. That means it has only one input terminal and one output terminal. Also it's used as on-off switch in circuits, when the switch is closed, the circuit is also closed.
