No, you cannot use a 10 amp switch to open a window in a 12 volt DC system. This is because the switch would not be able to handle the current necessary to power the window motor. The amount of current required to open a window in a 12 volt DC system is typically much higher than 10 amps, and so the switch would not be able to cope with the load. In addition, the switch would not be able to sustain the current necessary to keep the window open, which could lead to the window becoming stuck in the open position. Furthermore, the switch would not be able to handle the circuit protection requirements necessary to keep the window safe. For these reasons, it is not recommended to use a 10 amp switch to open a window in a 12 volt DC system.

Can a automotive light switch on a 6 volt system work in a 12 volt system?

Yes, an automotive light switch designed for a 6-volt system can work in a 12-volt system, provided the switch's current rating is adequate for the higher voltage. However, the switch may be less durable due to the increased electrical stress, potentially leading to overheating or premature failure. It's also important to consider that the overall lighting performance may change, as bulbs rated for 6 volts will not perform optimally at 12 volts.
