A 20 Amp single pole switch is needed when the circuit requires higher amperage capacity to safely control the load. Using a 15 Amp switch on a circuit that requires 20 Amps could lead to overheating and potential fire hazards. Always match the switch's amperage rating with the circuit's requirements for safety and proper functionality.
It is not safe to use a 30 amp circuit with a 12 gauge wire for a tablesaw that spikes above 30 amps on startup. This setup can pose a fire hazard and may not provide adequate protection. Consider upgrading to a properly sized circuit and breaker to ensure safe operation of your tablesaw.
A reversal of polarity in a 12-volt motor can occur if the wiring connections are switched or if a DPDT (double pole, double throw) switch is used to change the direction of current flow through the motor. It can also happen if a control circuit such as an H-bridge is used to control the motor direction.
Not necessarily. The amp rating of a power tool indicates its motor's power consumption, not necessarily its performance. Other factors like quality of construction, design, and intended use will determine the overall performance of the tool. Choosing between a 15 amp and a 12 amp tool should be based on the specific requirements of the task at hand rather than just the amp rating.
A 12 amp current is stronger than a 9 amp current because amperage is a measure of electrical current flow. More amps indicate a higher flow of electricity, which means a 12 amp current can power larger devices or provide more energy than a 9 amp current.

YES
A 12-amp motor is fairly standard and will be about as loud as a typical vacuum cleaner, that is to say loud enough to scare gunshy dogs and babies but not loud enough to be overbearing.
The more amps any tool pulls, the stronger it's motor is.
Motor: 12v AMP usage: 1.2amp Watt: 12x1.2=14.4W

The Boss SmartVac 4870GZ uses a 12-amp motor.
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.
no a 240V switch rated at 30amps may work ok but could be a problem with a motor or coil if the switch is not dc rated chances are the 240V switch opens far enough to break a 30 amp arc, even if its not fast enough
Hoover steam vacs have a 12 AMP motor which is very good.

Yes but only up to a load torque of 8/9 of the rated torque.
