General Purchase & Comparison Queries
Is this switch compatible with all Ideal angle grinders?
No. The Ideal Switch Spare Part (Part No. 30348) is designed and engineered exclusively for the Ideal ID AG115DC angle grinder. It is not a universal switch and may not be electrically or mechanically compatible with other Ideal models or other brands. Always verify your tool’s model number before purchasing to ensure a correct fit.
Is this a genuine OEM spare part or an aftermarket replacement?
This is a genuine OEM-specification replacement switch sourced for the Ideal ID AG115DC. It is manufactured to the same electrical ratings, mechanical dimensions, and safety standards as the original factory-fitted component, ensuring your angle grinder performs exactly as intended after the repair.
Why should I replace the switch rather than buying a new angle grinder?
Replacing a faulty or worn switch is a highly cost-effective repair that restores your angle grinder to full working condition at a fraction of the cost of a new tool. The Ideal ID AG115DC is a professional-grade machine, and a single switch replacement extends its service life significantly — making it the smarter, more sustainable choice for workshops and tradespeople.
Product-Specific and Usage Queries
What does the locking mechanism on this switch do?
The integrated safety lock on this switch prevents the angle grinder from being accidentally powered on. This is especially important during disc changes, wheel adjustments, and tool transport. The lock must be deliberately disengaged before the switch can be activated, providing an essential layer of protection in professional and workshop environments.
Can I install this switch myself, or do I need a professional technician?
While this switch is a direct drop-in replacement that requires no modification to the tool’s housing or wiring, Ideal recommends that switch replacements be carried out by a qualified power tool technician or electrician. Working on the internal electrical components of a power tool carries risk if not done correctly. Always disconnect the tool from the power supply before any repair work.
What is the part number for this switch, and how do I confirm it matches my grinder?
The part number for this replacement switch is 30348. To confirm compatibility, check the model label on your angle grinder — it should read Ideal ID AG115DC. You can also cross-reference the part number against your tool’s original documentation or service manual. If in doubt, contact our team with your tool’s serial number for verification.
Problem/Solution-Oriented Queries
My angle grinder won’t turn on — could the switch be the problem?
A faulty or worn switch is one of the most common reasons an angle grinder fails to power on. If your Ideal ID AG115DC does not respond when the trigger is pressed — and the power supply, cable, and motor have been ruled out — the switch is the most likely culprit. Replacing it with the genuine Part No. 30348 is the recommended first step in diagnosing and resolving this issue.
The switch on my grinder feels loose or intermittent — is it safe to continue using the tool?
No — do not continue using the tool if the switch feels loose, intermittent, or unresponsive. An unreliable switch is a serious safety hazard, as it can cause unexpected starts or stops during operation, which may result in injury or damage. Disconnect the grinder from the power supply immediately and replace the switch with the Ideal Part No. 30348 before resuming use.
The safety lock on my current switch is broken — can this spare part fix it?
Yes. If the safety lock mechanism on your existing switch is damaged, cracked, or no longer engages correctly, replacing the entire switch assembly with the Ideal Part No. 30348 will restore full locking functionality. Operating an angle grinder with a broken safety lock is a significant risk — this replacement restores the protection your tool was designed to provide.
