ABSTRACT:
A wall switch cover and actuator of the type used in combination with a standard wall toggle switch whereby operation of the switch between its on and off positions is accomplished by pressing on the face of the invention. The wall switch cover and actuator basically comprises a frame which is held in position over the standard switch by the switch's cover plate. A switch actuator element is removably held within the frame, and portions of the switch actuator abut opposite sides of the standard toggle switch. A cover is also mounted on the frame over the switch actuator so that pressure on the cover will be transmitted through the switch actuator to operate the toggle switch.
