The electrical rating that gets printed on the Conntrol nameplate is that of the lowest rated component within the foot switch. The internal snap switch, the cord and the plug are all components that have a maximum electrical rating. If the switch on the inside has a maximum electrical rating of 15 Amps but the cable on the foot switch is only good for 10 Amps, the nameplate will reflect the 10 Amp rating. That is why a foot switch without cord may hold a higher electrical rating than a foot switch with a cord.
