Hello, I have a problem, it will probably be trivial for some, but not for me. I'll get to the point, I wanted to plug a through switch into the cable, I bought a regular switch, thinking that inside it will look like this and there will be no connection problem, but when I opened the switch...

Little is seen in this picture.

Do not let the cable clamp on the protruding contacts there?

Please, give me more pictures and how should I connect such a cable here ?

You don't connect two veins and one you cut. You don't cut the other vein.

ok just how do i connect this one strand to keep it?

You slide the earned vein under these cut plates and clamp it.

You slide the cable under the elements marked on the photo with a red circle and then tighten these elements

Ok, I understand that I lead the second wire in the middle of the switch but I don't cut it?

Exactly. And it's best to cut the brown vein.

Only what it gives him if he inserts the plug in the opposite socket. The switch should interrupt both paths, just like the one from the first picture. What the author bought not only is crap-like and may cause various circuses using some light sources, but it is still dangerous when using the lamp.

It will be made in accordance with the so-called "engineering art" or "good workmanship", or with regulations that probably say about breaking a specific vein.

That's right, of course. After inserting the plug in the opposite way and it is possible, We have a phase after the switch despite switching off.
And probably because there are warnings everywhere to pull the plug out of the socket as we want to get inside or replace the bulb.

Go to a good electrical wholesaler - you will definitely get a decent switch because it really looks shoddy.
