Troubleshooting

Intermittent switching

Silver contacts are pitted from arcing. Replace the contact block — they are consumable parts. If arcing is severe, check that the switched load doesn't exceed the contact rating (typically 6A at 120VAC).

Contact block won't snap onto button body

Verify the contact block series matches the button head series (e.g., Schneider ZB4 blocks fit ZB4 heads only, not ZB5). Check for debris or damage on the mounting tabs.
