Installing the BEP Marine 80-511-0003-00 switch involves preparing a 19mm panel cutout and wiring the five blade terminals. Because it is a marine-grade switch with an IP67 rating, proper sealing during mounting is essential.
1. Mounting Instructions
Panel Preparation: Drill a 19mm (3/4") hole in your dashboard or control panel.
Sealing: Place the included black O-ring over the switch body so it sits against the front flange.
Securing: Insert the switch into the hole and tighten the locking nut from behind. Ensure the O-ring is slightly compressed to create a watertight seal.

2. Wiring Guide (5-Terminal Layout)
The switch has five terminals usually labeled on the back: C (Common), NO (Normally Open), NC (Normally Closed), and two LED (+/-) pins.
A. Standard "On when Pressed" Setup
This is the most common configuration where both the device and the blue LED ring turn on when the button is pushed in.
Power In: Connect your fused 12V DC positive supply to the C (Common) terminal.
Power Out (Load): Connect your device's positive wire to the NO (Normally Open) terminal.
LED Positive: Create a small "jumper" wire between the NO terminal and the (+) LED terminal. This ensures the blue ring only lights up when the switch is active.
Ground: Connect the (-) LED terminal to your common negative/ground bus bar.
B. Always-On Blue Backlight Setup
Use this if you want the blue ring to stay lit so you can find the switch in the dark.
LED Positive: Instead of jumping from NO, connect the (+) LED terminal directly to your 12V power source.
Everything else: Wire the power and ground as described in the standard setup.

Important Safety Tips
Amperage Limit: This switch is rated for a maximum of 5 Amps. If you are powering high-draw equipment (like pumps or large light bars), you must use it to trigger a relay instead of wiring the device directly.
Corrosion Protection: Use marine-grade heat shrink butt connectors or female spade terminals to prevent salt-air corrosion on the connections.
