片切りのスイッチ
Japanese to English
Tech/Engineering
Electronics / Elect Eng
A type of switch that is commonly used in 100V type circuit (single phase). I understood what this switch is, but have no idea what can be a good term in English. This switch is contrary to 両切りスイッチ which shuts off current on all the three phases when used in three-phase circuit (片切りスイッチ shuts off current only on two phases out of three).

Single Pole Switch
The single pole switch is the general purpose workhorse of switches. Single pole switches turn a light, receptacle or device on and off from a single location. A characteristic of a single pole toggle switch is that it has an on and off marking on the switch, something you will not find on a three or four way switch. Make sure the switch is wired in the correct direction so the words "on" and "off" are facing correctly.
