Light Switches & Wallplates
Light switches and wallplates are fundamental components of residential, commercial, and industrial electrical systems. Light switches control the flow of electricity to lighting fixtures, while also contributing to the overall appearance and usability of a space. RSP Supply offers a wide selection of switches designed to support reliable electrical control in professional environments, including toggle switches, rocker switches, and dimmers.
Different switch styles provide varying levels of functionality and aesthetic appeal. Toggle switches offer a traditional, straightforward design, while rocker switches provide a modern appearance with smooth operation. Dimmers allow adjustable lighting levels, supporting energy efficiency and improved comfort in offices, facilities, and commercial spaces. These options make it easy to match lighting control needs with the intended application and environment.
Wallplates, also known as switch plates or outlet covers, complete the installation by protecting wiring and internal switch components while providing a clean, finished appearance. Available in a range of configurations, materials, and finishes, wallplates can be matched to switches for a cohesive look or used as a design accent. In industrial settings, proper installation practices and compatible hardware help maintain enclosure ratings and environmental protection where required.
