    will these limit switches work with my G540?

    I am looking to buy some limit switches for my machine that I am nearing completion on and I found these. I am using a G540 and the recommended power supply that is rated for 48v and 7.3a.

    Specs say that they are rated for 4 amps at 125 volts AC. and 1/2 amp at 125 vdc. And that these can be connected normally closed or normally open via the three sets of screw lugs.

    There isn't any significant current going through a limit switch so these would be fine.
