Wiring instructions for a two switch

If I understand correctly, you have a dual switch with one switch stacked above the other.

If this is not correct, add a comment and I will help further.

On each side of the switch are screws with different colors.
The brass screws show in photo above.
Sometimes these screws are dark-colored.
The brass screws are connected by a brass plate so both screws are the same thing.
Your black hot wire from breaker goes to the brass screws.

On the other side of the switch are two independent silver-colored screws.
If the screws on other side of switch are dark-colored, then the screws on opposite side are brass and not silver colored.
Your black wires going to Load (fan, light, motor) go to each of these screws.

Each switch receives the same power source through the brass-colored screws on one side of switch, but on the other side of the switch, each wire is independent as each switch controls a different Load.

I have an exterior copper lantern with broken

Contact a glass company, but also look for a stained-glass maker.

Stained glass is set inside a soldered frame. That person will have the tools to fix it.

You will probably have to get a handy-man to remove the outdoor lamp so it can be taken to the glass shop.

I have a single pole

I hesitate to answer question because the color of the screws is not identified. The holes are not identified which color screw they are next to. You can fill in these blanks when answering if the following information is not complete.

First of all, the green screw goes to bare ground wire and isn't discussed further

Usually a single pole switch has 2 brass-colored screws.
This tells you the wires from old single pole switch can connect to either screw.
Normally the quick-connect holes are located next to a screw >> that screw and the hole are connected. Sometimes there are two holes next to a screw >> and the same rule applies that holes are connected to screws they are next to.

If your switch has two screws and the colors are brass and silver, then that tells you something else.
It says that black-hot-wire-from-breaker connects to brass screw.
And wire-going-to-load (fan, light, motor) connects to silver screw.
If you do not know which wire is which, connect wires, if device doesn't work, then reverse the wires.
Again the quick-connect holes are located next to screw they are connected to.

If your switch has threes screws, then that switch has 2 brass screws and 1 dark screw.
You can wire this device as a single pole by connecting wires to dark screw and either brass screw

My upstair room light is stop working. Changed

Hi there,  Have you checked to see if you have power getting to your switch? You could've tripped a circuit breaker, so I would check your electrical first to rule that out. Once you've checked for power, put your switch in the OFF position. Next, take off the light from the ceiling...leaving just the two wire's hanging down and apart from each other. If you have a voltage tester/meter, then you'd want to turn the switch ON again - then check to see if you're getting power (voltage), as well as, a complete circuit. If so, great! If not, contact me again and I'll help you further. But I believe you'll have found the problem already after following the above steps. Make sure to secure each connection when putting your light back up onto the ceiling. And, DON'T turn the switch back on until your light is securely mounted. Good Luck with this, and feel free to contact me again if this doesn't work. - Jim

Adding an additional light switch to an existing

To add a second switch to control an existing light, you need to get a 3wire cable between the two switches, Thats red, black, white, green wires in the cable. Then you would have to use two 3way switches to make it work. I posted a "tip" on how to wire the 3way switches ..

Please Vote !!

I am trying to wire a double toggle switch one

I can probably help you, but I need more info. Are you replacing a single switch that operated both of these lights together? Do you have 3 black wires and three white wires in the box now? Are the 3 white wires all connected together? Were 2 of the black wires connected to one terminal of the old switch, and 1 black wire connected to another terminal of the switch? ----- I'm doing lots of guessing here so that you understand the kind of info I need.

How to wire a cooper four way switch

As I describe the number of terminals, I am not counting the ground terminal (usually colored green.) A four-way switch has four terminals. Two are for two "travelers" coming in, and two are for "travelers" going out. One pair is at the top, and one pair is at the bottom. You only need to use a four-way switch if you are wiring three or more switches together to control the same light. In the case of three switches, only the middle one needs to be a four-way, with the first and third switches only needing to be three way switches. If you are only wiring two switches together, you only need to use three-way switches. However, you can use a four-way switch in place of a three-way switch by only using 3 of it's 4 terminals. . . Before I write the rest of a very long reply, please ask me some more questions so that I can focus on what you need to know. Please describe what you are doing.

How to connect light switch

Nope, you have the wrong type of switch. The old one is what is called a 3-way switch. You need to purchase a replacement 3-way. The switch you currently have is a standard on/off switch and can not be used in that situation.
