Can this be used as a switch? Does it have a "test" function that can be used as a switch?

Yes you could. the red button will trip open the breaker. To close you would have to reset the breaker by turning the little grey lever.

Sure. It has a manual reset. You can push the red button pictured to break the circuit. You can then latch it back manual with the grey switch.

Yes, this breaker can be used as a switch. The red button you see opens the breaker when pressed; the grey colored lever flips down. To reset the breaker, or, in your case, close the switch, you simply push the grey lever back closed, like is shown in the picture. My breaker is connected to a battery bank consisting of 6 deep cycle batteries connected to an inverter for backup power. I use my breaker as a switch in addition to providing circuit protection.

No. There is no selection or switch. You just plug in and wait. It works fine for us.

I've not actually used the switch but I wouldn't trust it for that purpose. Dirt could get inside it and the switch itself doesn't appear to be waterproof.

It can be wired to switch either way. But the relay activates on low (LED comes on and switch is pulled closed).

Not on this device. Only one switch perhaps another device or if the lamp has an on/off could work for you

Not sure... i havent had much success with these switches, wiring them like one should doesnt always work... may be some of them are faulty internally

I don't see why not, as long as there is not too much current for this switch and it's wires. Keep it away from PC parts that might be sensitive to magnets like your hard drives.

I don't think this will work for you. There is only one control switch, so I can't see it working for you

This switch only allows power in a momentary press. Not an off/on switch. Only when pressed.

No. It can't be used for a switch, the purpose of it is to conserve your hot water when it gets warm.

Yes. Since we received the switch we have used it with a multifunction and have had zero problems.

Yes you can. It automatically switches whichever way. BUT it is pretty uncomfortable and bulky to use in that mode. :)

Yes it can. If yours doesn't you may have a defective switch.Make sure you are sliding it back all the way to lock in the o postition

Yes, it is basically like an ordinary switch, except it's remote. However, read the directions if you purchase and install one, it's easy but you must program it for on/off mode.

I have the same question. I have thought if using a switch but am not sure if it would work that way.

I'm using the switch as an on/off/auto for a electric car fan. It is double pole/double throw, so you can do two of something (fans, pumps, whatever) if you want. So it would be off/off, on/on, or auto/auto. If i understand you correctly you want to run the pump normally controlled from of a sensor "auto", then force "off" even if the sensor says to turn it on, and then also force "on" if the sensor says no. If that is the case then YES this switch will work. The switch completes the circuit in two positions, and is "open" in another position.

You might be able to, but it would be difficult. Mine too has failed, but at the switch. It still works, but it's dangerous.
