Product overview
A battery master switch disconnects the battery from the vehicle's electrical system at a single point, serving three key purposes. For safe servicing, it prevents accidental starts and protects against short circuits when working on the electrics. For storage, it prevents parasitic battery drain during extended periods without use. For anti-theft, the removable key means the battery cannot be reconnected without the key a simple but effective deterrent for parked vehicles and caravans.
At 75A continuous at 12V the ACX3409 is suited to main battery isolation in most passenger vehicles, 4WDs, caravans and light commercial vehicles. The two 8mm stud terminals accept ring terminals with an 8.4mm or larger ID for main battery cable connections. The 24mm mount diameter and 33mm mount length suit panel, firewall and recessed mounting locations. The key is only removable in the Off (open) position, ensuring the circuit cannot be closed once the key has been removed.

Frequently asked questions
What is a battery master switch used for? A battery master switch provides a single point of disconnect between the vehicle's battery and its electrical system. It is used for safe servicing — preventing accidental starts and protecting against short circuits for extended storage to prevent battery drain, and as a basic anti-theft measure by preventing the battery from being reconnected without the key.
Why is the key only removable in the Off position? The key can only be removed when the switch is in the Off (open) position. This ensures that if the key is removed and taken away, the circuit cannot be accidentally or intentionally closed the battery remains isolated until someone with a key returns. This is a deliberate design feature for anti-theft and safety purposes.
What cable termination size suits the 8mm studs? The 8mm stud terminals accept ring terminals with an 8.4mm or larger ID hole. Suitable OEX options include the ACX3056 (8.4mm ID, blue) and ACX3057 (10.5mm ID, blue). Select a ring terminal rated for the cable gauge used in the main battery circuit.
Can this switch be used in a 24V system? The ACX3409 is rated at 75A at 12V. A 24V rating is not confirmed in the current product data. Check the OEX product specifications for 24V suitability before use in a 24V application.
