Abstract A switch comprising: first and second fixed electrical contacts, first and second power source contacts, a handle, and two mobile conductors moveable axially simultaneously between a non-conducting position and a conducting position wherein in the conducting position one conductor contacts the first fixed electrical contact and the first power source contact and the other conductor contacts the second fixed electrical contact and the second power source contact and wherein subjecting the handle to both rotational and axial movement causes the mobile conductors to move between the non-conducting position and the conducting position, so activating the switch.
