One meaning of "key lock switch" is a switch that requires a physical key to turn. Many computers come with such switches installed. They cannot be turned on or turned off except by persons who have the key.
Another meaning is switch that can enable or block traffic from a keyboard. When the switch is thrown, the keyboard becomes inert. In some cases it can be set up like a screen-lock, where a password must be inserted or a physical key inserted in order to enable the keyboard.
