FIG. 2 is the same isometric view of the switch depicted in FIG. 1 as seen extending through a central square shaped opening of a wall plate cover, the wall plate cover being shown in environmental lines;

FIG. 3 is a front view of the switch depicted in FIG. 1 (Note: no back side plan view is shown because nothing is claimed about that side of the invention);

FIG. 4 is a left side elevation view of the switch depicted in FIG. 1 (Note: a right side elevation view is omitted because it is the mirror image of the left side elevation view);

FIG. 5 is a top view of the switch depicted in FIG. 1 (Note: a bottom side view is omitted because it is the mirror image of the top side elevation view);

FIG. 6 is another alternate embodiment of the square switch depicted in FIGS. 1-5, the switch including a center light transmissive region or marking surrounded by an annular light transmissive region or marking;

FIG. 7 is a full isometric view of a square switch having an annular light transmissive region or annular marking, the switch being shown as it comes from the factory on its mounting plate, the plate and integral hardware behind it being shown in environmental lines;

FIG. 8 is the same isometric view of the switch depicted in FIG. 7 as seen extending through a central square shaped opening of a wall plate cover, the wall plate cover being shown in environmental lines;

FIG. 9 is a front elevation view of the switch depicted in FIG. 7 (Note: no back elevation view is shown because nothing is claimed about that side of the invention);

FIG. 10 is a left side elevation view of the switch depicted in FIG. 7 (Note: a right side elevation view is omitted because it is the mirror image of the left side elevation view);

FIG. 11 is a top plan view of the switch depicted in FIG. 7 (Note: a bottom plan view is omitted because it is the mirror image of the top plan elevation view);

FIG. 12 is another alternate embodiment of the square switch depicted in FIGS. 7-11, the switch including a center light transmissive region or marking surrounded by an annular light transmissive region or marking;

FIG. 13 is a full isometric view of a square switch having an annular light transmissive region or annular marking within a concave annular region, the switch being shown as it comes from the factory on its mounting plate, the plate and integral hardware behind it being shown in environmental lines;

FIG. 14 is the same isometric view of the switch depicted in FIG. 13 as seen extending through a central square shaped opening of a wall plate cover, the wall plate cover being shown in environmental lines;

FIG. 15 is a front elevation view of the switch depicted in FIG. 13 (Note: no back elevation view is shown because nothing is claimed about that side of the invention);

FIG. 16 is a left side elevation view of the switch depicted in FIG. 13 (Note: the right side elevation view is the mirror image of the left side elevation view);

FIG. 17 is a top plan view of the switch depicted in FIG. 13 (Note: the bottom plan view is the mirror image of the top plan view); and,

FIG. 18 is another alternate embodiment of the square switch depicted in FIGS. 13-17, the switch including a center light transmissive region or marking surrounded by an annular light transmissive region or marking disposed with a concave annular region.
