Thats not a single pole switch, which would have "on" and "off" on the toggle. Its a 3 way switch that is most likely wired so that when the switch is flipped up it will do one function, and when it is flipped down it will do another, but will never be turned off.Either way, Romex should not be outdoors unless it is type UF-B and would not be able to carry the current that a siren draws.
@videogamer24385 as far as i could tell, it is ran FROM the siren, to the switch, to the light... The switch wouldn't be able to handle the amperage(or 3 phases) of that siren.
@bait28 That siren is DC only, and it only needs a 15 amp 120 volt service to keep the batteries charged. I've seen it in person, and it's the crappiest wiring job I've seen on a siren.
@videogamer24385 you don't get what i am saying the wight wire run from the bottom of the light switch to the tornado siren for power and the light switch run a wire to the light's at the top. if you pause it at 0:22 - 0:23 the wight wire run's out the bottom of it to the tornado siren not from the top of it so that mean's the pipe that run's from the top of the light switch to the light's on the top
and know one is that dumb to put a light switch on a tornado siren
@jk1567 Whoever installed this one is. The service feed comes in under ground. I've seen it in person and I'm an electrician. The Switch IS tied into the siren.
@deafmonk24 "So here we are in Dixon, Tenessee. With one of their Tornado Sirens. If you come down, you follow this power line over here, and you notice that Romex wire. Now, with this Romex wire, you will notice it goes to a light switch. Which, has been turned off. That, is how you put thousands of people's lives at risk. Dixon Tenessee, just why." Is what he said.

@WheelockAlarms All that romex wire does is charge the batteries, so that's 15 amps at the most that siren puts on that romex

Flip switch into on position, super glue in place. Then you break the nose off the light switch. Problem solved.
