el switch
i'm wireing a 4 gallon, 110 volt water heater, it has an el plugin cord. i want to put it on a switch. it is on a 20 amp breaker, using no, 12 wire. i have a(leviton heavy duty grounding double pole switch), i'm familiar w/ the regular 2 screw switch, but i thought useing a heavy duty on w/h would be wise? anyway, when i look at the diagram of the switch on the box in comparison to the switch, there are differances, there is no way to wire it as shown on box, am i being perinoid.

Just use one pole. The screw on one end of one side connected to the screw in the same side on the other end. If it is conected with a cord and plug, there is no need for the switch really, as the plug is the disconnect.
