Why don t switches have a voltage?

When the switch is on the ON/closed position, your "voltage tester" measures 0V across the switch because that is exactly the case - a closed switch is a short-circuit and even though there may well be current flowing through it, there is no voltage across it.

Does a switch affect voltage?

Answer and Explanation: When the switch is open, no current flows through the circuit; it essentially acts as an infinite resistance. As the current through the circuit is zero, no voltage drop happens across the resistors and hence the total voltage difference would now be across the open switch.

Do switches take voltage?

Switches have a voltage limit, but they also have different current limits at different voltages. There are also wattage limits sometimes, and the rated limits may be different for different loads, depending on if they are resistive, inductive or capacitive.
