DynaLock 6210 6000 Series Pushbuttons, Palm Switch, Alternate Action, Single Pole Double Throw

hi I'm around cylinder director of engineering Andy switch welcome to this third video in our six-part video on how best to choose best switch for your application today I'm going to talk to you a little bit about poles and throws in the top four circuits that we see mainly with all of our products but before we get into the actual circuits I'd like to do a little definition on what poles and throws really are first off a switch really is in his basic form does nothing more than really open and close electrical circuits so when the switch closes the circuit it allows an electrical circuit to flow from point A to point B when that happens when we have a closed circuit in a switch we call that a pull now if you have two closed circuits at the same time we call it a double pole if you have threes closed circuits at the same time we call it a three pole for two closed circuits at the same t
