Description
Surface Mount 1 Switch GE Low Voltage Cover Set - Ivory
Update a vintage GE RSS-1 switch base and original mini rocker low voltage light switch. This replacement elevated switch unit sits on the wall surface for easy install on cement walls or other spots where you cannot set the electrical box into the wall. The included switch itself has 2 buttons - one side is ON and other is OFF.
Kit includes one ivory switch plate with screws, a new ivory GE 24-volt light switch with wiring connectors, and a surface-mount extender ring with screws. Separate mounting anchors appropriate for your surface material will be required (not included) if you cannot use the regular electrical screws included for any reason.
GE HAS DISCONTINUED THE SWITCHES. WE RECOMMEND THE TRIGGER SWITCHES AND DESPARD PLATES AS AN ALTERNATIVE.
