2. Multiway switching - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiway_switching

   These switches appear externally similar to single pole, single throw (SPST) switches, but have extra connections which allow a circuit to be controlled from multiple locations. Toggling the switch disconnects one "traveler" terminal and connects the other. Electrically, a typical "3-way" switch is a single pole, double throw (SPDT) switch. By ...

   An example is a pushbutton switch. SPDT Form C [4] Single pole, double throw: Two-way: Three-way: A simple break-before-make changeover switch: C (COM, Common) is connected either to L1 or to L2. SPCO SPTT, c.o. Single pole changeover or single pole, centre off or single pole, triple throw Similar to SPDT.

4. Double switching - Wikipedia

   Double switching is a crucial safety engineering practice in railway signalling, wherein it is used to ensure that a single false feed of current to a relay is unlikely to cause a wrong-side failure. It is an example of using redundancy to increase safety and reduce the likelihood of failure, analogous to double insulation. Double switching ...

   Below is a list of typical switch configurations and usage: Single pole, double throw (SPDT or 1:2) switches route signals from one input to two output paths. Single pole double throw (SPDT) switch from Agilent Technologies. Multiport switches or single pole, multiple throw (SPnT) switches allow a single input to multiple (three or more) output ...

   Shown here will be fastened to this recessed, non-metallic box, then a cover plate is installed. This "double gang" (two unit) installation uses non-metallic-sheathed cable and twist-on wire connectors. In electrical wiring, a light switch is a switch most commonly used to operate electric lights, permanently connected equipment, or electrical ...

   A double switch, or double slip—the points are set to connect the upper left and lower right tracks. A double slip switch (double slip) is a narrow-angled diagonal flat crossing of two lines combined with four pairs of points in such a way as to allow vehicles to change from one straight track to the other, alternatively to going straight ...
