VEX Robotics Competition Discussion VRC > Previous Games

I had always understood that electrical parts could not be modified for use in VRC competitions, however my reading of <R15> seems to contradict my previous understandinig. The first bullet point under paragraph (a) reads as such:

[FONT=Helvetica][FONT=Helvetica][LEFT]“Internal or external electrical or mechanical modifications of VEX Limit and Bumper ****switches are permitted”[/LEFT]

[FONT=Verdana]Please confirm if this is a typo or if such modifications are truly permitted.[/FONT]
[/FONT][/FONT]
