I sure "Switch on the TV" is a correct sentence.

I'm pretty sure "Switch on the power of the TV" is not a correct sentence.

But what about just "Switch on the power" or "Turn on the power"?

How about "Power on the TV" or "Power up the TV"?

Thank you.

I've not heard of  "Switch on the power" or "Turn on the power"?

The correct usage is "Switch on the TV" or "Turn on the TV."
