Switch Plates: Home Electrical Project Basics

One of the easiest, most inexpensive and most fun do-it-yourself electrical projects is changing the lighting switch plates in your home. Sears offers a variety of switch plates to complement the interior dor of every room in the house, from simple to sophisticated.

A lighting switch plate is simply the plate that covers light switch hardware and hides the wiring that connects switches to a home electrical current. Easily removed and installed with a flat head screwdriver in most cases, a lighting switch plate can be changed in seconds once youe selected the switch plate style that suits your decorating needs.

Some homeowners might opt for the cozy warmth of oak lighting switch plates to complement many neutral or pastel wall paint colors. Wood-toned switch plates look homey and stylish in nurseries, or in rooms where there is wood cabinetry, such as bathrooms and kitchens. Other homeowners might prefer the ease of cleaning plastic or nylon white switch plates. When paired with white trim in a living area and contrasted with medium or dark wall paint colors, white switch plates lend a clean and cheery cohesiveness to dor that is both contemporary and timeless.

Other switch plate options include brushed nickel, stainless steel, faux finish, brass and even cartoon artwork suitable for children rooms. Sears offers a good variety of Cooper Wiring and Leviton lighting switch plates, so do-it-yourselfers are only limited by their own decorating visions.

Both Leviton and Cooper Wiring product lines include not only lighting switch plates but also matching electrical outlet plates, telephone and cable outlet plates, and multiple outlet plates to meet the needs of many different electrical wiring configurations. For maximum interior design attractiveness, match all the plates in a single room to one another.

Use caution if removing a plate exposes loose wires. If any loose wires are visible when a plate is removed, it may be a good idea to shut off the electricity feeding the switch or outlet before proceeding or calling a licensed electrician for assistance in reconnecting the wires.
