No.

the 10/2 must never be fed from anything more than a 30 A breaker. If you're planning to feed a sub-panel using 10/2, use a 30 Amp double breaker.

No, using 10-2 wire for a 60A circuit is not up to code. For a 60A circuit, you need to use at least 6 AWG copper or 4 AWG aluminum wire. Also, the subpanel should be sized appropriately for the amperage of the circuit it is fed from. In this case, the subpanel should be at least 60A, not 20A.

The game that requires you to throw a double before you can begin scoring is darts.

What is a DPST switch?

DPST is short for double pole, single throw. Double pole means that the unit contains two identical switches, side by side, and operated by one single toggle or lever. This means that two separate input wires can be controlled by a flick of one toggle. Single throw means that each switch can make or break a circuit; it can connect the input wire to the output, or not. It can't connect to one or other of two output wires, switching between them. A DPDT switch is also used for a disconnecting a 240 volt supply from a 240 volt load. Some other types of switches are Single Pole Single Throw (ordinary light switch), Single Pole Double Throw, Double Pole Double Throw, Triple Pole Single Throw and Triple Pole Double Throw
