Old switch for the old guy.

Heyseed · Oct 3, 2019

Working on an old cabin and need to replace this switch. The print on it says Wiremold on one side and Arrow H&H on the other. It is about 1.5 inches long and ceramic. Any ideas where I can find one. No luck doing online searches.

This might do it. Lower in the site are fatter Wiremold boxes. Jim

No link Jim?

Looks a tad scary to me. How brittle is the wire ?

Were not old. We are just well aged.That switch needs to retire.

Would a despard switch fit?

Janicholson · Oct 3, 2019

There it is. There are many other sources googling Wiremold switches. There are deeper boxes as well. Jim

there is a special catalog for restoration parts. Can't think of the name of it right now... something like 'Restoration Parts Catalog' or something like that. Someone here prolly has the catalog close by. Google is your friend.

Using the link Janicholson gave you get a bit deeper box too. It will fit right on top .

Thanks again guys, I will go with a deeper box and try to cheat it into place. I want to keep the repair within the original footprint. I don't have matching paint and this old home is like a museum.
