I've unintentionally acquired many Atlas #215 selectors. They are intended for use with the likes of N and HO which have a much smaller power draw than our O Gauge trains. However, I have used them for decades on O gauge trains without fault - from my perspective, I didn't explicitly pay for them, and if they blew up, I could then spend money on the "right" thing, whatever that turned out to be. So far, no issues. However, I make a habit to not switch them under load. But to @gunrunnerjohn's point, they are probably technically undersized. However, Atlas doesn't seem to release any specifications 

I've been using them for nearly 20 years - never had an issue.
