Pushbutton switch Merten MEG3155-0000 — 1P, metallic, 250 V AC, 10 A

The Merten MEG3155-0000 pushbutton switch is a single-pole (1P) control device with a metallic finish, rated for 250 V AC and a nominal current of 10 A. Intended for control circuits and lighting, this compact pushbutton can be mounted on panels or walls to provide momentary or latching manual switching depending on the wiring and application. The design suits residential and light-commercial installations where a durable, easy-to-operate mechanical actuator is required.

Advantages

The metallic housing offers mechanical robustness and a professional appearance while the single-pole contact simplifies circuit integration. Rated at 250 V AC and 10 A, the switch is compatible with common control and lighting circuits. Its compact form factor enables installation in constrained spaces and standard mounting arrangements. The device is manufactured by Merten, a brand known for components for building electrical installations.

Suitable for

• Control circuits for small motors or relays
• Lighting control in residential and light-commercial spaces
• Panel or wall-mounted manual switching points
• Applications requiring momentary or latching pushbutton operation

Key specifications

• Poles: single-pole (1P)
• Rated voltage: 250 V AC
• Nominal current: 10 A
• Finish: metallic housing
• Mounting: panel or wall mounting compatible
• Operation: mechanical pushbutton (momentary or latching depending on wiring)

How to use

Install the Merten MEG3155-0000 in accordance with local electrical regulations and standard wiring practices. Ensure power is disconnected before mounting and wiring. Connect the single-pole terminals to the control or load circuit, making sure the connected load does not exceed the rated 10 A at 250 V AC. Depending on the required behavior, wire the switch for momentary operation or as a latching contact using appropriate control circuitry or relay arrangements. After wiring, secure the device to the panel or wall cutout and restore power to test operation.

Recommendations

Verify compatibility with the intended load and control system, and use protective devices (fuses or circuit breakers) sized to prevent overcurrent. For installations in humid or corrosive environments, consider additional protective housings or finishes. Periodically inspect mechanical operation and terminal tightness as part of routine maintenance.
