I like the large DPDT switches myself (I use the 060-310). Bit of a pain to cut the hole though. The fuses you found should be OK.

Yep,
I dont care for illuminated switches myself.
But 12v switches are often for automotive work I guess.

DPDT Rocker Switch

hinted to by William...I find only one switch from that source that I would use.

DPDT will disconnect both legs of a circuit when not in use.

Rated 250VAC

How to connect or wire the DPDT with the transformer? When I built the ClassDAudio amplifier, it puts a SPST switch in series with the AC-L.

Thx!

Paro,
you should not allow yourself to wire up any mains powered project without trained supervision looking over your shoulder !!!!!

Check out this page for some direction on mains wiring. You certainly need to understand exactly what you are doing with this part of diy. The fun can come to a screeching halt real quick if you don't. And please be sure to use heatshrink tubing on all of the exposed terminals and connections.

These are good assuming you can reach round the back of your DCB1 to turn on and off.

I....guess....this could even be considered an alternative for your power switch.

(Be careful. Wiring "mains" circuits can be deadly. Have an experieced friend assist you--and have them double-check your work)
