What is 4 pole circuit breaker?
I have never seen a four pole circuit breaker. Breakers are single, two and three pole. Single pole for 120 volts, two pole for 240 volts and three pole for three phase loads. In North America all neutrals are SN (solid neutrals) and are not switched. In certain applications using a three phase Y-connected load, where complete isolation of the load from the supply is required, the neutral line connects to one pole of a 4 pole circuit breaker.
Which is best double pole or single pole power socket?
there is no answer a single pole socket is a 120v and a double pole is 240v if you are talking about contactors it is completely up to the appliance but a double pole double throw is just as safe as a single pole single throw contactor, Example a single pole single throw will only disconnect the "hot" wire, not the neutral or ground wire and thus no voltage will pass however with a 240 v circuit a double pole single throw only disconnects one "hot" wire and will still have voltage through the circuit (120 volts not 240 though)and is not as safe as a double pole double throw that will disconnect both "hot" lines so no voltage is in circuit If you need electrical work done and do not completely know how to wire it up to code and be safe in the process hire a professional! >>>ITS WORTH YOUR LIFE<<<

What is the difference between iron clad double pole switch and double pole single throw switch?
Answer for USA, Canada and countries running a 60 Hz supply service.The difference between a double pole switch and a single pole switch is the use of the switch in the installation or equipment. A double pole switch is used when the voltage from two circuits has to be broken. An example of this is a 240 volt supply. A single pole switch is used where there is only a single supply voltage that has to be broken.

What does a double pole refer to?
.............................../ Pole 1 ---------------O O---------------------- | | ................................/ Pole 2 ----------------O O--------------------- | Two single throw switches mechanically joined together so that their individual poles are switched simultaneously. One throw actuates both poles. Example: that doubled air conditioner circuitbreaker. Add another position for each flapper "/ " and you have a double pole double throw. Periods .... were used to place flappers, which should connect to the O's below them. Graphical interface would be helpful. Throw = switching actions available to different circuit paths Pole = a power line connection to switch to the different paths.
