ABSTRACT:
A label which is cut and sized to fit on the interior surface of an electrical cover plate, such as a cover plate which is affixed over a light switch or an electrical outlet. The exterior dimensions of the label are formed to be approximately the same size as the flat dimension on the back of the electrical cover plate, such that the label does not extend onto any beveled side portions of the electrical cover plate. Furthermore, the label has formed therein appropriate cut-outs in order to allow the electrical switch or electrical plug to protrude therethrough, as well as holes to allow the electrical cover plate screws to pass therethrough. The label may include an adhesive coating on one side which is adapted to semi-permanently adhere to the back of the electrical cover plate. The opposite side of the label comprises a smooth, calendered surface which is adapted to be easily written upon by a pen or pencil.
