A toggle switch is an electrical component that controls the flow of electricity through a circuit by means of a mechanical lever that is manually controlled. Though toggle switches come in several varieties, in their simplest form, they're essentially on-off switches for whatever circuit they're wired to. Usually, toggle switches are installed in devices that lack a pre-existing means for regulating an add-on's operation. For example, a person might install a toggle switch in his or her car to operate an aftermarket interior LED light system. See Step 1 below to get started installing your own toggle switch! | A toggle switch is an electrical component that controls the flow of electricity through a circuit by means of a mechanical lever that is manually controlled.
