Full titles differ between systems:

IPC:

Switches operated by an operating part in the form of a pivotable member acted upon directly by a solid body, e.g. by a hand > Details > Movable parts; Contacts mounted thereon > Operating parts, e.g. handle > not biased to return to original position upon removal of operating force

CPC:

Switches operated by an operating part in the form of a pivotable member acted upon directly by a solid body, e.g. by a hand (tumbler or rocker switches H01H23/00; switches having an operating part movable angularly in more than one plane H01H25/04) > Details > Movable parts; Contacts mounted thereon > Operating parts, e.g. handle > not biased to return to a normal position upon removal of operating force

IPC and CPC are identically structured here. All 2 subcodes exist in both systems.
