Hello. This doesnt concern actual chipboards but rather rewiring electrical work. I just bought a miter saw that has a laser guide thats only activated when you pull the trigger to start the saw and I want to redo it so I use a rocker switch to power the laser instead. Here is how the saw is factory wired up. Theres 3 wires coming into the saw from the power cord. The black wire (hot) a white wire (nutrual) and a green wire (ground). The black power wire runs to the trigger switch. Out of the trigger switch are 2 wires. One wire (same awg as black wire going into switch) goes to the motor itself. The other black wire which is much smaller is awg goes to a little box (looks like something to reduce power output as thats what it says on the sticker). Out of the other end of that box are 2 wires that go to the laser itself. Red and black. Im assuming red would be the hot wire and black would be the nutral. There is another black wire that comes out of that box which splices into the nutral (white wires) coming from the power cord and the motor. What I was thinking is if I remove the small awg wire from the trigger switch and solder that to a rocker switch and then on the other end of that rocker switch I run a wire and splice that into the power wire that goes from the power cord to the trigger switch..... that would work. The box says 110-120 ac ouput: 3v 30ma so im guessing thats just a reducer.
