Robertshaw Controls RCA470-P3 Selector Switch

The RCA470-P3 is a black 3-position selector switch from Robertshaw Controls (RobertShaw Electric) intended for panel- or appliance-level control, providing a compact rotary mechanism to select among three distinct circuit paths within a single device. This switch carries a 10 A, 600 VAC rating and is listed as Type 70C-1A, aligning with standard mid-power control hardware used in legacy appliances and industrial panels. As part of the RCA470 family, the P3 variant offers a three-position design that enables straightforward control logic for routing power or control signals to multiple loads from one control point, which can simplify wiring in compact installations. The unit’s black housing supports discrete installation in control enclosures and, when installed correctly, helps ensure operation within its rated limits and applicable electrical codes. The RCA470-P3 is commonly used where a single control must select between several load configurations.
