  1. Measure the force it takes for your finger to flip the switch.  Maybe one ounce?  The wind will need to apply the same force, since the switch doesn't care what is applying the force.  How do you get the wind to apply that much force to a switch?  That's the real question, maybe attach a sail or something to that switch.


  2. The wind will act equally on both sides of a light switch (UK style switches) so an infinite wind won't even do it.
