When I was figuring out my ground power jack switching, I thought that it would be nice to have a test function in the switch to protect my electrical system from inadvertent reverse polarity or excessive voltage.
So, nevermind that Bob's design took all this into account, I got a cool Honeywell switch that is a 3 position, MOM-MAINTAIN-MAINTAIN. My myopia became apparent when I was doing my wire book page for this circuit and I saw that the "test" function (MOM position) did nothing different than just throwing the switch for GP function. If something was amiss, per Bob's design, the 2a breaker fries and you investigate.

So my question to the group is , What else might I use the MOM function of the switch for, other than to connect it to my brain to push ON before I start thinking about cool ideas.

Thanks,
John
