A light switch can burn due to several factors, including poor electrical connections that create excessive heat, overloading the circuit with too many devices, or using a switch rated for a lower voltage than the electrical load. Additionally, faulty wiring or damaged insulation can lead to short circuits, resulting in overheating. Regular wear and tear, as well as moisture exposure, can also contribute to the degradation of the switch, increasing the risk of burning.
