I’ve had this switch for a while and never been able to work out how to wire it any ideas

Is that all you have?
It's a remote start/stop control for a DOL or similar starter/contactor.
Not much use on its own, without a relay as a bare minimum.

No I bought it off eBay a while ago and this is all that came with it

Those are just momentary contact blocks, the NO one is used to pull in a relay, or motor contactor, the NC one is part of the relay latching circuit and is broken when you press it so dropping the relay out,

NO= normally open.
NC= normally closed.
I'm assuming you have to cover for it?

Yes got the cover just wondering if anyone could tell me how to wire it

in case that isn't enough, this shows what you do with the wiring but you would need a double pole change over relay (DPCO relay)

You keep saying 'if anyone could tell me how to wire it' but, wire it to what?

A motor

A motor View attachment 223800

As said above, those 2 switches (at least with nothing else attached to them) won’t be able to control that motor.

just buy a dol starter with the correct size overloads and don't bother with what you have . it will be cheaper and easier to wire
