Light switch required, please.

Hi

Does anyone know where i can get a switch like this, please?
It's from an old brass stand lamp. I would like to keep the same
style of switch. I have seen "square-in line" style versions
for table lamps etc., but can't find this "torpedo" type.

any help?

You could use an inline switch with only a single cable entry - blank the other end somehow.

Use this style on inline (it has knock outs for cable) and don't knock out one end

Hi Chri5 / lectrician

Thanks for your feedback.
Yep. I have seen these in abundance, but
my challenge was to find a torpedo style switch
in line with the original "retro" design.

You see, I have an old victorian stand lamp and a modern
in line switch looks kind of silly.

Is this metallic fitting correctly earthed?
