An illuminated NC pushbutton combines a normally-closed manual contact with a lamp in the operator assembly.

## What it represents

An illuminated NC pushbutton combines a normally-closed manual contact with a lamp in the operator assembly. Contact operation and illumination can have different circuit sources.

## How to read it

- Read the contact's unoperated state without assuming that illumination means it is actuated.
- The preview is an original explanation of this function. Match the actual drawing convention to its legend and the selected equipment documentation.

## Information to show or reference

- State lamp voltage
- Name indicated condition
- Reference contact terminal pair

## Important distinction

A normally-closed contact function is independent of the lamp's on or off state.
