Default Wiring a Homebuilt Router Table

Good evening, all. New user, first post, so hello to all!

Now, to my question. I am in the process of building the router table described in Bill Hylton's excellent book Woodworking with the Router. I'm actually proceeding very well and am having a lot of fun building it. But I have a problem. I have no electrical training, and while I want to wire in the switched outlets that are described in this (and other) router table plans I've seen, I don't know how. Does anyone have a schematic or other diagram that can show me how to wire this up properly without electrocuting myself?

Additionally, if anyone knows of a good two-button pushbutton on/off switch, that would be great, too. I've seen the Rockler one (with the throw-type switch and the outlet on the front), but I'd really like the peace of mind of a "green on, red off" two button type.

Any help would be great! I've been lurking here for a while, readin up on your previous words of wisdom, but could not find anything on point here. Thanks in advance for your assistance!
