  2. A DPST switch is often used to switch mains electricity because it can isolate both the live and neutral connections. A pair of on-on switches which operate together (shown by the dotted line in the circuit symbol). A DPDT switch can be wired up as a reversing switch for a motor as shown in the diagram.

  3. A Double Pole Single Throw (DPST) switch has four different terminals and is often used to connect two source terminals to their respective output terminals (but never to each other). A DPST switch can be used in an "ON/OFF" configuration, where its terminal pairs are either connected ("ON") or not connected ("OFF").
