More on Switches for your Home Lighting Design

Our last post discussed the standard switches. Today, let's talk about Pilot Switches.

A pilot switch has a toggle that glows when the fixture is on. These switches are used when the switch is located away from the light fixture. You could use pilot switches outside a doorway at the top of stairwell leading to a basement. When the pilot switch is glowing, you know the light is on, without having to go down in the basement to see.

Next posting we will discuss dimmer switches. Remember to always be sure to have a licensed electrician install any new switches. For more information on switches, or for recommendations on local electricians, you may contact your local Lighting One showroom. Use the locator listed at http://www.lighting-one.com/ to locate your closest showroom.
