What is the function of an SPDT switch?
Pick an answer to check it.
Answer: C. A single circuit is switched between one of two other circuits
SPDT means single-pole, double-throw. Single pole means one circuit is being switched, and double throw means it can connect to either of two positions. So a single circuit is switched between one of two other circuits.
Tip: Pole = how many circuits; throw = how many positions each can go to.
