Combo outlet/switch wiring question

[bad5x8]

I need to install a combo constant outlet/switch for a 120v bench motor that is mounted on a pedestal stand.
The outlet will be constant for my light, and the switch will be hardwired to a bench motor.

The question is: which way to I wire it?
google came up with two options, which way do you like better, and why?

OPTION 1:

This video breaks the connector plate

OR

OPTION 2:

This diagram for scenario #1 doesn't break the connector plate


I am leaning towards option 2 because there are less wires in the box to worry about.

Don't break off the tab...

Seeing as how you are probably dealin with standard romex wiring, you only have 12/2 to work with...That's a black, a white and a bare ground, right?

In that case, use the first example and not the second where you break the tab.

.....as far as your "bench top motor"...Size Matters when selecting a switch....Most combo outlet/switches are not rated for anything except household lighting and countertop appliances....15 amp max if wired with 12AWG or better.

There are Horse Power rated swiches available but not in a combo with an outlet. These switches install in a standard utility box and look exactly like a light switch once installed, but contain a heater coil and when flipped interupt both black and white wires....If your benchtop motor approaches or exceeds 1 HP, then you might wanna use this type switch-especially if you expect to load the motor like when grinding/polishing
