What is single pole two way switch?
It provides switching for a single wire. It has one input and one output. When the switch is open (Off) the input is not connected to the output. When it is closed (On) the input is connected to the output.
How do you tell a single pole breaker from a double pole breaker?
AnswerAccording to my husband, all sockets are double pole, single and double pole refer to switches. Hope that helps. Double pole isolates both neutral and live, single pole only isolates live, double is better, but single is cheaper. DP-switched sockets have only become commonplace in relatively recent times anyway, marketed on yet another "increased safety" angle when there was never any safety problem with SP to begin with.
When switches are connected in series mention whether the switches are dependent on each other to turn the lamp on?
When switches or any circuit opening devices are in series with each other, they all have to be in the closed position to energize the load.When switches or any circuit opening devices are in parallel with each other, any one of the switches or circuit opening devices in the closed position will energize the load.
How do you wire 2gang 3gang and 4gang 1way switches?
All of these types of devices have different applications and usually are of different physical sizes. If you are talking about poles and confusing it with gangs then; A 2 pole is a double pole single throw switch. A 3 pole switch is usually used as a manual transfer switch for three phase applications. A 4 pole, never heard of one. A 1 way or single pole switch is the same type of switch used in home circuits to turn the lights on and off. The term gang in the electrical trade refers to electrical junction boxes (usually for switches) that are joined together to make an installation compact by keeping all of the switches in a common place. A single "hot" circuit is brought in from the distribution panel and pigtailed to each individual switch. The bottom of the switch then connects to the individual lighting loads.
What is the line of latitude near the north pole?
All the lines of longitude intersect at the earths poles and their point of intersection is the position of the pole.
What is a two position switch?
A single-pole two-position switch -- also called a single-pole double-through (SPDT) switch -- is a manually-operated device that can be pushed to one of two states: the common terminal makes contact with the L1 terminal, and is isolated from the L2 terminal; or the common terminal makes contact with the L2 terminal, and is isolated from the L1 terminal. Other two-position switches have more than one pole, acting like several SPDT switches that are electrically isolated but mechanically connected so they all move from one state to the other together. When more than one light switch controls a light bulb -- "three way" and "four way" light switches -- each switch is a two position switch.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of a double pole circuit?
A double pole switch can be used in either a 240V application where you'll need to disconnect 2 "hot" lines, or it is useful when switching a light from 3 different switches. Disadvantage? I suppose it could be a little confusing to face all those contacts on a double pole switch.
How do you get all of the light switches to be in the down position for off when you have more than one switch for them?
Three way switches do not have a up-on down-off position. With the lights off, reposition the switches so that the handles are all down. This is the start position and depending on how you enter the room and turn on the lights certain switches will be left up when you leave the room. That is just the design of the switches and for the asthetics of the look, all handles down the lights will be out.
How does a double pole switch work?
A switch is inserted in series with a single wire. When the switch is on, it is as if the wire had not been opened to insert the switch. When the switch is off the wire is open and no current can flow. All a double pole switch does is allows you to switch two separate wires at the same time with the same switch action. A single pole switch just switches one wire.
What is single pole two way switch?
It provides switching for a single wire. It has one input and one output. When the switch is open (Off) the input is not connected to the output. When it is closed (On) the input is connected to the output.
What effect would occur if the intermediate switch s3 were replace by a double pole switch?
You seem to be referring about a 3 way lighting circuit. If the cross over switch is replaced with a double pole switch, depending on how the switch was wired into the circuit, the load lamp would either stay on or not light at all. A circuit in a three way configuration has two traveler legs between the two switches The intermediate switch in the circuit just switches the two traveler legs from open to close depending on the position of the other two switched. Google, three way switching, they have many diagrams to work from.

What is the world record for pole position the video game?
The world record of pole position was 71,460 by Hiro japasxan from Horisananai, Mongolia and the American record of pole position was 71,040 by Skaroley cavernly from Scotsdale, Arizona. This all happend at the 2006 video racing championship of pole position and neither of them won that championship. The winner was Kalvin jaspeck from Price edward island in Canada and his best was 66,820 of his pole position career.
What order do you position the switches on 24 carrot island?
The two outside switches go halfway down, and the middle one all the way down.
Why neutral conductor are used for lighting loads?
single pole switches to turn em on and off neutral to all the lights
