there is no answer a single pole socket is a 120v and a double pole is 240v if you are talking about contactors it is completely up to the appliance but a double pole double throw is just as safe as a single pole single throw contactor,
Example a single pole single throw will only disconnect the "hot" wire, not the neutral or ground wire and thus no voltage will pass however with a 240 v circuit a double pole single throw only disconnects one "hot" wire and will still have voltage through the circuit (120 volts not 240 though)and is not as safe as a double pole double throw that will disconnect both "hot" lines so no voltage is in circuit
If you need electrical work done and do not completely know how to wire it up to code and be safe in the process hire a professional! >>>ITS WORTH YOUR LIFE<<<

What is a DPST switch?
DPST is short for double pole, single throw. Double pole means that the unit contains two identical switches, side by side, and operated by one single toggle or lever. This means that two separate input wires can be controlled by a flick of one toggle. Single throw means that each switch can make or break a circuit; it can connect the input wire to the output, or not. It can't connect to one or other of two output wires, switching between them. A DPDT switch is also used for a disconnecting a 240 volt supply from a 240 volt load. Some other types of switches are Single Pole Single Throw (ordinary light switch), Single Pole Double Throw, Double Pole Double Throw, Triple Pole Single Throw and Triple Pole Double Throw

Will a single phase 32 amp distro run 10kw?
The short answer is no. The long answer is no, not if you are using standard 100-120 volt or 220-240volts found in most (all?) countries The following is a simplified best case scenario, which incorrectly assumes a power factor of 1. Power = Volts * Amps Watts = Volts * AMPS (Actually VA = Volts * Amps, but VA=Watts in best case scenario) but 10kw > 240 * 32. David
