An electrical load controller includes an electrical switching device and an actuator assembly having at least one user actuator for use in turning power on and off to the load and for use in adjustably controlling the level of power to the load. A frame attached to the actuator includes an integrally formed backlightable indicator region having an outer continuous solid surface. Light from an illumination assembly related to the level of power to the load is directable onto a portion of an inner surface of the backlightable indicator region, transmittable through the backlightable region from the inner surface to the outer surface, emittable from a portion of the outer surface, and observable by the user.

A control device configured for use in a load control system to control one or more electrical loads external to the control device may include a first switch member and a second switch member. The control device may include an actuation member having an upper portion and a lower portion. The actuation member may be configured to actuate the first switch member and the second switch member in response to tactile actuations of the upper portion and the lower portion. The actuation member may include first and second pivot arms that enable the actuation member to pivot about a pivot axis in response to the tactile actuations. The first pivot arm may define a notch. The control device may comprise a light pipe configured to conduct light emitted by a light source through the notch to a light indicator located on the bezel.

Electrical distribution systems and methods comprising a first cable-to-box connector which accepts electrical wires, a first electrical box having a first and a second coupler to connect to the cable-to-box connector; intra-box circuits built in one or more of a plurality of walls of the first electrical box and connecting the first and the second coupler; and a concavity defined by the plurality of walls of the first electrical box that receives a first electrical insert

A load control device may be configured to provide a user interface for controlling the intensity and/or color of one or more lighting loads. The user interface may include separate actuation members for setting the intensity and/or color of the lighting loads. The user interface may include one actuation member configured to operate in an intensity and/or color control mode. The control mode of the actuation member may be set via a button, a lever, a rotary switch, a rotary knob, etc. The user interface may include a touch sensitive element capable of sensing a user's touch and translate the touch into a control signal. Feedback may be provided on the user interface to indicate the type of control being adjusted and/or amount of control being applied to the lighting loads.

An electrical switch with identifying features. Embodiments include a toggle assembly for an electrical switch that comprises a switch body including a contact mechanism configured to control an electrical circuit. A movement of the toggle assembly from a first position to a second position is mechanically communicated to the contact mechanism. The toggle assembly can also include a user-operable actuator portion elongated between the switch engagement portion and a front end of the toggle assembly enabling a user to pivot the toggle assembly from the first position to the second position. Embodiments include an interchangeable tile removably coupleable to the toggle. The interchangeable tile can comprise an identifier. Embodiments include an illuminating element.

In a switch unit which is equipped with a seesaw switch and a rotary switch, the seesaw switch and the rotary switch are arranged in a manner so that an axis of a swing fulcrum, i.e., swing shaft, of a knob, and an axis of a rotary shaft of a wheel intersect one another.

A switch that includes an illumination structure that extends at least partially around a perimeter of the switch. The illumination structure being illuminated based on the status of the switch. The switch also including a switch surface that includes a transparent or translucent material that can be illuminated based on the status of the switch. The switch being adapted for use in a wet or damp environment.

An exemplary embodiment of a load control device with a light indicator is disclosed. The load control device may include an actuator assembly and a light source. The actuator assembly may include a frame, a light pipe, and an actuator having two surfaces. The light pipe may be arranged within the actuator and include first and second legs. The first leg may extend towards the first surface, and the second leg may extend towards the second surface. When the actuator is in a first position, the light source may be optically aligned with one of the first and second legs; and, when the actuator is in a second position, the light source may be optically aligned with the other of the first and second legs. When the light source is illuminated, the light pipe may direct the light towards the respective surface of the actuator.

A rocker switch having a housing and a rocker extending from the housing. The rocker has a first side with a first end and a second end, a second side adjacent to the first side, and a channel. The channel is disposed on the second side of the rocker and has a first end and a second end. A pivot point is disposed on a crank. A pin, disposed on the crank, is located in a first side of the channel. The depression of the first end of the rocker causes a rotational movement of the channel in a curvilinear path around the pivot point, causing a rotational movement of the crank, moving the pin from the first end of the channel toward the second end of the channel.
