Zusammenfassung:	A switch 100 for controlling electrical power supplied by a power source 300 to an electronic safe and arm unit, ESAU 200, comprises a contact assembly arrangement 110 comprising a contact assembly of a first type 112 movable from a first arrangement defining a first switch state to a second arrangement defining a second switch state. An actuator 120 is configured to act on the contact assembly of the first type 112 to cause said movement of the contact assembly of the first type 112. The actuator 120 is configured to act on the contact assembly of the first type 112 under the influence of centrifugal force caused by rotation of the switch 100.
