Electrical switch unit for an electrical device

An electrical switch unit for use in an electrical device to control flow of electrical current therethrough from a power source to power the electrical device, the electrical switch unit comprising:

• a fixed electrical contact and a movable electrical contact, said movable electrical contact being configured for movement relative to the fixed electrical contact between an ON position in which the movable electrical contact is in contact with the fixed electrical contact wherein electrical current is able to flow from the power source therethrough to power the electrical device, and, an OFF position in which the movable electrical contact is out of contact with the fixed electrical contact wherein electrical current from the power source is not able to flow from the power source therethrough to power the electrical device;
• a contact mover movably coupled to a terminal member, the contact mover being configured for movement relative to the terminal member so as to move the movable electrical contact between the ON position and the OFF position;
• and
• a biasing member coupling the contact mover and the terminal member together such that said biasing member is configured to act upon the contact mover as the contact mover moves the movable electrical contact relative to the fixed electrical contact between the ON position and the OFF position;
• wherein when the movable electrical contact is arranged in the ON position, electrical current is able to flow along an electrical current path comprising the terminal member, the contact mover and the movable electrical contact in series, and, wherein an electrical insulation member is arranged in series with the biasing member between the contact mover and the terminal member whereby said electrical insulation member electrically insulates the biasing member from electrical current flow therethrough when the movable electrical contact is arranged in the ON position.
