===Orientation=== The direction which represents "on" also varies by country. In the US and Canada, it is usual for the "on" position of a toggle switch to be "up", whereas in many other countries such as the UK, Ireland, and other European countries as well as India, Australia, New Zealand (Commonwealth countries), Egypt, and China it is "down". (In [[#Multiway switching|multiway switching]], the correspondence between a single switch's state and whether lights are on or off depends on the state of the other switch[es] in the circuit.)
