Switches - Toggle mainly

All about switches

Firstly,
Poles Vs Throws.
Poles: A switch pole refers to the number of separate circuits that the switch controls.
Throws: This indicates how many outputs each switch can connect its input to. 

MTS stands for Minature Toggle switch.
The Switch bushing  has a 6mm diameter.

There are a few variations on these switches.
1. Momentary switch remains in its “on” state only as long as it is being compressed. Once the user removes the compression of the switch the device is no longer on. ...
2. Latching switch needs to be pressed once for ON and again for OFF, for example a light switch.
3. Non-Latching - When pressed it is on. The reverse action is off 

There are also various codes:
