The scope of this part is to establish a working definition for switches and their constituent parts and identify the main types; to list the minimum informative requirements for the manufacture of the switches and/or constituent parts; to formulate codes of practice for inspection and tolerances of both full and half sets of switches and their constituent parts; to establish the limits and scope of supply; to list the methods by which switches and their parts should be identified and traced.
