Hi, I have broached this subject before out of interest but have lost the thread -
i now have a requirement to replace a normal light switch with some sort of neon or illumination to indicate its on.. there is no neutral at the switch so a DP indicated switch etc is not on. It will be a big job to run a neutral to it.
i know there are switches with some sort of glow neon behind the fascia so you can locate it in the dark - has anyone got any info on these, what are they called? do they need a neutral? who supplies them? any other alternatives? I realise its in reverse ie the light is on when the switch is off but this would be acceptable to the customer.
Any info would be much appreciated..
Many thanks..
