sorry, I meant "door-mounted", not "door mounter". Please forgive my fingers for typing too quickly :)

Note from asker:
So Aoife and Jane - You are sure that door switch is the same thing as "door mounted switch". I know that interruptor is a switch...I just want to make sure I get the exact technical term.
Peer comment(s):

agree Deborah do Carmo : as a native English speaker myself (despite the surname!) must be circuit breakER or switch - is not an interruptor//;-) - I was born in Liverpool (the "other" capital of Ireland) so recognised that - bye for now ;-)

Thanks, Deborah :) I guessed you were a native speaker from your first name :) My name is a traditional Irish one, which often leads to confusion.

Thanks, Carlos :)
agree henley : I'd go for just "door switch". Fridges have them and they are circuit breakers. See " http://www.diybanter.com/showthread.php?t=9336" and http://www.swannelectronics.com.au/fridge.html

Yes, thanks Henley :)
neutral Jane Lamb-Ruiz (X) : just a switch....door mounted is not there..is it? Rest assured, my comment is not personal. I am sick and tired of rhandler's personal comments. He should stop them.
1 hr
I was referring to the "de porta" reference, but I agree with you and Henley that "door switch" is fine. Thanks, Jane :) Note added: Jane, I think Rhandler was referring to Maria Leonor's disagree, which did indeed look a bit personal :)
agree rhandler : This is the best translation, Karen (door-mounted switch). Disregard the "disagree" up there, it's purely personal.

thanks :)
agree Claudia Massey

Thanks :)
agree Carla Queiro (X) : Also native speaker, also despite the name, also electrical engineer. Door mounted switch is correct

Peer comment(s):

agree Aoife Kennedy : KAren, it's probably best to go for "door switch" - that's essentially what it is, whether or not it's mounted on a door. When in doubt, keep things as simple as possible.

Thanx Aoife...I appreciate your support....:)
