What are the switches on a GE low voltage lighting system?
Description: Rare, old-fashioned GE low voltage lighting systems have mini 24 volt 3 wire rocker switches, part numbers RFS-3, RFS-6 or RFS-9 that are mounted in narrow steel straps, also called brackets or yokes. The switches have a gap in the middle, one side says ON the other side says OFF.
How does a low voltage lighting system work?
The low-voltage wiring system uses small-gauge copper wires connected to low-voltage switches to switch on and off relays which in turn control the operation of lights and where desired, electrical receptacles, and other 120-Volt equipment in homes.
Can you replace an old GE light switch?
The products at the top of this page include switches, switch plates and relays for replacing old, discontinued or broken GE or Bryant low voltage parts. Learn more detailed information about the various types of replacement switch plates and other parts below. Replacing old GE switches is easy.
Where can I find low voltage electrical wiring?
Often the low voltage switching relays, low voltage transformer, and on occasion other low voltage building wiring components are collected in one or more control panels such as this Touchplate Low Voltage Wiring control panel shown below – photo courtesy Doug Ford.
