I wonder why this would need to be a 20 amp switch as its only function is to ground the magneto so I don't think it is carrying that much current...it is open when not providing a ground path. I have lots of Bendix manuals at the hangar that I will peruse for a possible explanation and possibly see what Bendix specifies.
