ABSTRACT:
An in-wall mounted electrical actuation device is covered by a surface mountable cover plate. The cover plate provides a planar surface having a linear groove in it preferably extensive over a full length of the cover plate. Within the linear groove is an aperture. An actuator strip is slidably engaged within the linear groove, The linear strip provides a strip planar surface contiguous with the plate planar surface for thereby presenting a common planar outwardly facing surface. Inwardly protruding from the actuator strip through the aperture is an actuator finger which receives a device control for linear motion with the actuator strip relative to the cover plate so as to control the electrical actuation device.
