A manual service disconnect for the in-vehicle electric current, which has a switch seat, a safety plug assembly, and a protection cover. The switch seat has a seat portion and a plug holder. The plug holder is provided with multiple power legs. The seat portion is hollow inside and has a plug port and a wire opening. The plug holder is disposed in the seat portion and faces the plug port. The power legs project from the wire opening. The safety plug assembly has a plug portion matching the seat portion and a plug head disposed on the plug portion. The protection cover is disposed on the seat portion and covers the wire opening to cover the power legs for protection.

In one example, a sliding block module is provided. The sliding block module may include a block seat, a sliding block, and a first arm assembly. The sliding block may be at least partially disposed within the block seat, and may be configured to move vertically therein. The block seat and the first arm assembly may form a first hinge upon which the first arm assembly may rotate. The first arm assembly may include a first conductive component. The first arm assembly may be biased to rotate inwardly toward the block seat and the sliding block. The sliding block module may be utilized as part of mechanical trip/reset assembly of, for example, a circuit interrupter.

A pushbutton switch according to one or more embodiments includes an attachment fixed to one surface of a support, an operable portion removably engaged with the attachment, and a detector attached to another surface of the support. The attachment has a loose-fitting hole to loosely receive the movable magnet with the operable portion being engaged with the attachment.

An apparatus for a wireless switch. In some embodiments, the wireless switch includes an input device, a radio, a memory, and an electronic processor. The electronic processor is configured to place a mode selection indicator in an asserted state in response to a first manipulation of the input device, and to operate the wireless switch in a wireless mesh network communication mode in response to the mode selection indicator being placed in the asserted state.

A mounting frame may be configured as a self-adjusting mounting frame that biases itself against a surface of structure. The mounting frame may be a component, for example, of a remote control device or a faceplate assembly. The mounting frame may be configured to bias a rear surface of the mounting frame against the surface of a structure. The mounting frame may include biasing members. Each biasing member may include an attachment portion and a pair of resilient spring arms that suspend the attachment portion relative to a perimeter wall of the mounting frame such that the attachment portion is spaced further from the rear surface of the mounting frame than locations where the spring arms extend from the mounting frame. The rear surface of the mounting frame may be defined by the perimeter wall.
