Tilt switches “make” when the electrode is tilted below horizontal and

“break” when tilted above the horizontal. Total travel from “make” to

“break” is the “Maximum included angle” shown below. The

component to which the switch is attached must have a total tilt angle

greater than the “Maximum included angle” for proper operation.
