    20 Amp unit should do if what you have runs on a 13A plug.

    Thanks Nick. So to confirm, I would just connect the current mains plug wires to the "motor terminal" end of the switch (as these go to the starter relay) and wire a mains supply to the other end and supply air pressure to it?
    Yes its a standard 13A plug, would the cheaper unit rated at 15A (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/New-Single...kAAOSwLqFV9dJb) still be suitable? Thanks.

    That should work, I usually go for switching kit to handle more power as the contacts will usually last much longer if not loaded anywhere near their max rating,

    You think that's too expensive? You're not a Model Engineer are you? :D
