How can you tell if the switch that you have is a 3 way or not?
3 way switches have 3 terminals. A common on and off switch only has 2.
What is difference between single pole and double pole switch?
A single pole switch interrupts only one wire, which must be the live wire. A double pole switch interrupts both the live and the neutral, so it contains two separate switches operated by the same lever. Current practice is to use single-pole switches, to avoid a fault condition which could leave equipment live while switched off.
What is single pole two way switch?
It provides switching for a single wire. It has one input and one output. When the switch is open (Off) the input is not connected to the output. When it is closed (On) the input is connected to the output.
What do switches do?
A switch is a device that segments networks into different subnets. Segmenting the network into different subnets keeps one network from overloading with traffic. Therefore, a switch forwards all data in the data layer and sometimes the network layer as it filters the data. A switch allows a connection to be established and it terminates a connection when there is no longer a session to support. Prior to switches there were hubs. Hubs also connected multiple independent (connected) modules in a network, but they were not as efficient as switches. Since most switches work in Layer 2, and not in Layer 1 like a hub, they are better at filtering data. A switch looks for Ethernet MAC addresses, keeps a table (the bridge forwarding table) of these addresses, and navigates the switch between ports. The switch prevents collisions and gives full bandwidth to each connection at the switch port. Switches save bandwidth by only sending traffic to destinations that have traffic. When a switch switches Ethernet frames, they monitor the traffic for the response from that frame and see what device, on what port, responds to that flooded frame. There are different types of switches that range from "dumb" switches that lack manageability and can monitor only 4-8 ports to "managed" switches that can get statistics on switch traffic, monitor connections, and hard-code up to 96 port speeds and duplex. Then again, there are "chassis-based" switches with blades or cards that perform not just switching, but routing and intrusion detection too! If you are interested in this, look into Cisco's Catalyst 6500 Series. Another type of switch preferred by large enterprises is the "Layer 3 Switch," because it has the functionality of a router .
There is two rooms one has three light bulbs in it the other has three switches you are only allowed in the first room once you start in the secon how do you find out which switch operates which bulb?
You turn on two switches wait 5 min. and turn one of the switches off! go in the next room the cold one belongs to the switch you never turned on..the warm one the switch you only left on 5 min and the lite one to the switch that is turned on! you switch on one switch for a few minutes, one for ages, and dont turn the other one on at all. you go through to the other room, the bulb that is warm is operated by the first switch, the roasting hot bulb (that would burn your hand) is operated by the second switch, and the cold bulb is operated by the third switch.
Where is the 2002 Avalon inertia switch?
Ford is the only company that have inertia switches.
How do you make a 2 way switch which breaks the circuit only when both the switches are turned off?
Send power to the 1st switch and then send the power from that switch when it is in the on position to the second switch. Then send power to the light from the second switch. That way both switches will have to be in the on position for the light to be on.

What will happen of you use all your ports in a network switch?
Nothing; the switch works the same if you use all ports, or only a few.If you need to connect additional computers, you can either get a larger switch, or connect two switches between themselves.Nothing; the switch works the same if you use all ports, or only a few.If you need to connect additional computers, you can either get a larger switch, or connect two switches between themselves.Nothing; the switch works the same if you use all ports, or only a few.If you need to connect additional computers, you can either get a larger switch, or connect two switches between themselves.Nothing; the switch works the same if you use all ports, or only a few.If you need to connect additional computers, you can either get a larger switch, or connect two switches between themselves.
How do you create a network with 14 computers?
You connect each computer to a switch, using a UTP cable. Some small switches only have 8 ports; you can connect two such switches to each other, with an additional cable. Each computer has to have a network card.You connect each computer to a switch, using a UTP cable.

How are layer 2 switches similar to layer 3 switches?
A layer 2 switch at it's core only forwards data within a LAN and only deals with MAC addresses. A layer 3 switch has the capability of forwarding frames and packets because it understands IP addresses.
2001 pt cruiser window switch light replacement?
My research says that the switches use LEDs which are not replaceable in the traditional sense. It appears that the only option is to replace the entire switch or switch assembly.
Circuit diagram a light turned on from either location but can only be turned off with both switches?
3-Way switch. Google "3-way switch" for wiring diagram.
What do electromagnets in relay switches do?
They hold the switch in one position or another. Relays are only active so long as there is power flowing through the components.

A double pole switch interrupts both the live and the neutral, so it contains two separate switches operated by the same lever.

You are given only the IP address of the switch but not the port number How will you read that switch?
Your question doesn't make any sense. You don't "read" a switch. Did you want to access the GUI for the switch? This is only an option on "managed switches". Usually their web GUI is available on the standard http port, port 80.
How are fuses and switches similar?
A fuse can break the current flowing in a circuit only once whilst a switch can break the current flowing in a circuit many times. In other words a switch can switch the current on and off - and then on again and off again - indefinitely but a fuse can only switch off the current once.
