Abstract

An electrical switch assembly in the form of a joystick controller comprises a housing (10), a hand control or joystick lever (12) manually displaceable from outside the housing and serving to operate selectively a plurality of e.g. snap-acting electrical switches of the assembly, the electrical components e.g. (30, 35) of the electrical switches being mounted directly to the housing (10) of the assembly.
