What is a tether switch
378246
A tether switch is the float that with a ball inside, when the water level makes the float the ball drops to the bottom of the float it trips the switch and starts the pump, when the water level drops so the float hangs down it trips another switch and shuts off the power to the pump.

A tether switch is a mercury type or conductive liquid type switch, "tethered" to the pump by a wire so that it floats with the liquid. When the switch floats up on the tether the liquid in the blub engages the contacts and the pump starts. Placement in the tank is important with these switches, so the blub doesn't rub on the side of the tank.(which may be the problem that the previous writer has)The more expensive pumps also use these switches as opposed to sump pump switches which have a float that rides up and down on a rod and "pulls" a mechanical switch on and off.

When the water hits a height over the pump the pump turns on.I didn't have good luck with this pump. It stop working correctly with 6 months

It's a switch that floats. When water level rises to a point it turns the pump on. When level drops the floating switch turns off the pump

It has a tether. It is a ball too large to fit through the opening, connected to the cap by a plastic "string."

It is an open and close switch. It's just cutting the circuit of whatever you're putting it in between.

May not be the cheapest but, this switch Kinivo 301BN is really worth its weight. The only thing I would have done different would have purchased the 5 port Kinivo make

You can change out the tether it comes off just as a leash would to a collar.

yes it is a switch. You plug an Ethernet cable from a device that can provide dhcp addressing such a router or server, and this gives you multiple ports to plug in peripheral devices or computers.

It is a reed switch.... meaning it needs a magnetic field to change state. Power goes thru its contacts

The switch is made of heavy plastic. It is same type on any small electronic equipment- toggle switch (rocker type) with a "-" and "o" for the on and off position.

I bought 2 of these this winter, already had the harnesses. It is just the tether.

I got this last year and the tether is not a bungy, unless they have changed it. about 3', no stretch.

I am not sure. My Toyota Tacoma cap did not have have a tether. Great cap though. Over 2 years old and still working.

Automatic switching is always to the "on" device that is plugged into the lowest port#. You have to use the remote or manually switch to a higher port# for a dive that is "on".

As I recall, the tether is on the camera. It is pretty light weight. That said...I've never really used it and don't feel that I need it. I have done some pretty rough off-road motorcycling with this camera and mount and never had any problems with the camera coming loose.

The chassis of the switch connects to a sheet metal ground. There is a spade lug on the center pin that you connect the ground lead to whatever device is being connected. The circuit is completed when the switch is relaxed (fully up) and breaks when closes.

You still need a harness. This is the safety line that you connect the tether of your harness to.

It is a patch bay, not a switch. It is used for multiple location LAN. From this you go to a switch and then the server.

I don't understand your question. The switch is held in place by two Philips head screws and the wiring plugs into a receptacle on the washing machine. Pretty simple and straightforward.
