220 volt three way switch?
07-31-2007, 03:32 PM
I am looking to set up a 220 volt woodworking vacuum system on a three way switched outlet.
Is that possible, and if so, is there a special switch for 220?
Thanks!

I wouldn't use a three way to switch a 240 volt load. better way is to get a 30 amp contactor with a 120 volt operating coil. use the 120 volt as in any other conventional three way circuit to switch the coil of the contactor.
