It refers to the feeling
indicated on the inversion portion in the operating force vs. travel
diagram shown in the figure below. the greater the inversion part
is, the clearer it is to the operator that the switch is moved. |

Travel |
|
|
0.25 ± 0.1 mm. It refers to the distance
of travel of the operating part before the contacts are changed over.
