SPST stands for Single-Pole, Single-Throw, and is a designation for the switch contact arrangement that has just two terminals. As the switch is thrown, these two terminals will be either open or closed depending on the position of the handle.
An SPST switch can break the connection or hold the connection depending on which switch your using.
No.
A SPST switch is the type used for turning the lights on and off in your home lighting systems. It is just basically just an on - off switch.
A single pole single throw switch (SPST) is used to open or close a contact to a single wire. It can be used as an on/off switch for an appliance or for a light bulb.

It stands for Single Pole Single Throw
It is a single contact that can be either on or off. It has just two connections. The typical household light switch is a good example. SPST stands for Single Pole - Single Throw Single Pole = one contact Single Throw = on/off (as opposed to on/off/on, slow/fast/off, etc.)

Relays come in many different packages. There are SPST relays, SPDT, DPDT. Check the link below to see all the relay wiring diagrams.
You need a normally closed SPST momentary switch. There are several different kinds available at Radio Shack.
In electronics, SPDT refers to a particular type of switch; a "Single Pole Double Throw" style. Other flavors I think you may recognize now are SPST, DPDT, and TPDT. It breaks down like this; the "Pole" count (single, double, triple, etc.) refers to the number of switch contact sets that are connected to the switch lever. The "Throw" count refers to the number of positions the switch lever is designed to be set to. Light switches in your house are SPST switches.
