An inertia switch device has an inertia mass which is movable from a rest position as a result of acceleration or deceleration in excess of a given threshold value to cause a hinge-like assembly having two parts to pivot between two over-centre positions on either side of a centre position in which the two parts occupy a common plane and thereby cause movable electrical contacts forming part of the hingelike assembly to engage or separate from further electrical contacts.
