I want to install a momentary push-button switch in my car. The only one the matches very well is one from Radioshack. However it has a rating of 3A @125VAC or 1.5A @250VAC. My first question is, can I use a VAC switch in a 12VDC system? If so is there any formula that tells me how many amp can I pull through this switch before I need to use a relay?

Thanks for the help!

What is the switch going to be used for?

Always check info with a digital multimeter.
