Zusammenfassung:A switch 1000 for controlling electrical power supplied by a power source to an electronic safe and arm unit, ESAU, or a munition comprises a contact assembly arrangement 1010 comprising a contact assembly of a first type 1012. The contact assembly 1012 is arrangeable in a first arrangement defining a first switch state and a second arrangement defining a second switch state. Centrifugal force caused by rotation of the switch 1000 causes movement of at least a part of the contact assembly of the first type 1012 to change the arrangement of the contact assembly of the first type 1012 from the first arrangement to the second arrangement.
