Kelly, you can't tell the difference, because there is no difference. They mean exactly the same.

Switch on is used when you have a switch (interruttore) while turn on is used when you have a knob that has to be turned (manopola)

Any electric appliance that has an on-off switch (or on/off button) can be "switched on/off". Eg. Switch on the lights/television etc.
You can "turn on" any electric appliance, even if it does not have an on-off switch.
"turn on" is also exclusively used for those with turning knobs; eg. turn on the gas, turn on the tap etc.
