One wire goes into one end of a terminal block at the side of the switch and at the other end of the term block the wire goes to the '2 way' terminal on the switch. The other wire from the neon connects to the 'com' terminal on the switch. So, your incoming live wire connects to 'com' and the switch wire (the one that goes to the light) connects to the '2 way' terminal on the switch. Hope that's clear enough ! **Q: Is this a double pole switch?** A: The WP12 is a single pole switch. For double pole you need the WP30 (20a Double Pole) **Q: this states it is 2 volts i presume it is wrong and should be 240v?** A: You are correct 240 volts is the standard supply voltage it's the one that I am using it for no problems as long as you wire it correctly as per manufacturers instructions **Q: I this a rocker switch?** A: Yes. Its a single gang 1 or 2 way 20 amp rocker switch to control lights or equipment up to 20 amps or 4600 watts. ## Frequently Bought Together - BG Electrical Single 2-Way Outdoor Weatherproof Switch, IP66 Rated, 20AX, Grey - Cablelera Power Cord Extension and Splitter, NEMA 5-15P to NEMA 5-15R x 2, 16 AWG, 13A, 125V (ZWACPQAG-14) Black - PLUGTUL Outdoor Extension Cord 50 FT Waterproof, 16/3 Gauge Black Heavy Duty 3 Prong Extension Cord, 13A 1625W SJTW, ETL Listed, Great for Garden and Home --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.nz/products/47925428-bg-electrical-outdoor-weatherproof-single-2-way-switch](https://www.desertcart.nz/products/47925428-bg-electrical-outdoor-weatherproof-single-2-way-switch) --- *Product available on Desertcart New Zealand* *Store origin: NZ* *Last updated: 2026-09-14*
