These types of switches are usually found in three phase installations. When breaking line voltages in a three phase system all three hot legs must be opened to isolate the equipment. These types of switches come in different types for specific uses. Molded case breakers for circuit conductor protection. Non fused switches for equipment transference and fused switches for three phase service entrance equipment.

It is a type of switch or relay where there is just one set of contacts. The contacts can be open or closed. There are two terminals. A standard light switch like you would find in your home is a good example of a switch with a SPST contact.

How do you wire a single throw double pole?

Follow the instructions. I assume you are trying to switch 2 circuits with one switch. I always do a continuity test with an electrical meter to find which terminals to use. Usually one circuit will be wired on the left and one on the right.

What does com mean on a light switch?

In a situation where there is only one switch controlling the light or lights you normally use a spst (single pole single throw) switch that has only two connection terminals. This type of switch either connects or disconnects the two wires that are connected to the switch's terminals depending upon the position if the switch lever. The com terminal on a light switch means that it is a three way or the kind of switch used where there are two or more switches that controll the same light or lights. The three way switch is a spdt ( single pole double throw) . If you look closely you will find this designation somewhere on the switch. On the spdt switch you have three terminals, a common and two branches. In one postiion the common connects to one branch and in the second position the common connects to the other branch. If you are trying to install this switch in a situation where there is more than one switch controlling the light you must have the ability to correctly identify the common wire; if you can't do that you need help from someone who can do that correctly.

What is the advantage of a triple thread screw over a single thread?

The advantage of a double or triple thread over a single is that you develop more travel per rotation while maintaining large thread surface area. You will often find double/triple threads in linear actuators and CNC machines because it increases the rate of travel for a given rpm while maintaining thread strength.

How do you hook up fog lights on a 2006 freightliner Columbia?

Depends on how you want to go about it. If this vehicle came with fog lights, they're routed through the ECM, and that process requires you to have the corresponding software... if you're up for spending a few thousand on it, go for it. If you're trying to wire up fog lights in a vehicle which didn't originally have them, I would find an empty slot in the vehicle's fuse panels. From there, run a wire (I'd recommend at least 14 gauge, although 10 would probably be better) to a switch in the dashboard... you can either get a two pole, single throw switch, or, for about $5, you can get a single throw, three pole switch which lights up when engaged... the only difference is that you have to run a ground from the switch to get it to light up when engaged. The wire from the fuse will go to the switch input, the wire from the switch output will go to the fog lights. From the fog lights, you'll need to find a good ground to connect to the fog lights. Just as an aside, don't be one of these rookies who run their fog lights when there is no fog. Unless you're driving a 2005 or later Volvo VNL, the headlights are more than adequate.
