UPDATE: i answered this INCORRECTLY. I was answering it as if the thread question was about relays with silver contacts. Below is the response I gave in error. The only thing I got right was saying it is good to seed Julie back. Sorry for my error. Mike

I have found them often on power supply boards. Mostly I would find boards in Lab and Medical equipment where the board would both power and logic and would often have these type of switches.

Good to see you back. 73, Mike

Hi Mike! Sorry for the lag in reply - I'm trying to be back more than I actually have time for. I miss this place though and all my friends....
