Subject - TWO POLE SWITCH
doug DOES A TWO POLE SWITCH ALLOW ONE TO HAVE TWO POWER SOURCES CONTROLLED FROM ONE SWITCH? IN OTHER WORDS, TWO LIGHTS ON TWO SEPARATE CIRCUITS BEING PLACED ON A TWO POLE SWITCH TO BE CONTROLLED AT THE SAME TIME?
THANKS
kbsparky Sounds about right to me. I've done it with 2-pole switches, like in a carpet showroom, where there were too many lights for one circuit to handle, and I didn't have enough room for another wall switch. A double-pole switch solved both problems.
doug thanks kb,
many times when you look at things theoretical, even though they are simple, you want to put it out there for smarter heads to come back to you on to just verify that you are on the right page. thanks again
