A selector switch is an electrical switch used to select between different options or positions, allowing the user to control various circuits or functions within an electrical system.

Industrial control panels: to switch between operation modes, such as "Auto," "Manual," "Off," or "On."
Machinery operation: for choosing operating speeds or functions.
Power distribution: to select power sources or routes for electrical loads.
Selector switches can have two or more positions and are available in different types, such as maintained (stays in a position) or momentary (returns to a default position after release). They come in various configurations depending on the number of poles and throws required by the application.
