Default How do I know if I need a new switch for 240v?

You really don't have a clue, do you?

Well, that's false also. A switch for a motor has to be rated for the hp

of
the motor. You can be okay on voltage and amperage and still fry the
switch. It happened on my used table saw; the switch fused closed.
