- Troubleshooting & Solutions
| Fault Phenomenon | Possible Causes | Solutions |
| Switch cannot rotate | 1. Lock mechanism not released | 1. Unlock FS2 locking device completely |
| 2. Internal mechanical jam | 2. Power off then inspect internal springs & contacts | |
| 3. Over-tight wiring | 3. Rewire and control torque ≤0.4Nm | |
| Poor contact performance | 1. Contact oxidation | 1. Polish silver contacts gently with fine sandpaper |
| 2. Contact wear | 2. Replace contact module or whole switch | |
| 3. Loose wiring | 3. Retighten all terminals | |
| Failed protection performance | 1. Aging sealing gasket | 1. Replace original sealing gasket |
| 2. Improper installation | 2. Ensure close fitting between switch and panel | |
| 3. Oversized panel cutout | 3. Adjust panel hole within 16-22mm | |
| Decreased rated current | 1. Excess ambient temperature | 1. Lower ambient temperature or enhance heat dissipation |
