E3901.1 Rating and application of snap switches. General-use snap switches shall be used within their ratings and shall control only the following loads:
- 1. Resistive and inductive loads, including electric-discharge lamps, not exceeding the ampere rating of the switch at the voltage involved.
- 2. Tungsten-filament lamp loads not exceeding the ampere rating of the switch at 120 volts.
- 3. Motor loads not exceeding 80 percent of the ampere rating of the switch at its rated voltage.
