I was ask this question today
"is it legal to put a double pole switch in a single gang device ring to control two ckts for lighting?" I don't know...If so what about ocpd. two ckts on one switch could pose a hazzard to someone working on it. A helper remarked "use a two pole breaker with a common trip"
I have looked and can't find a ruling on the switch question...the two ploe breaker is not an option.
I'm thinking 10x10 j box, contactor ect...ect..
still wondering about the switch though???
