The Original Electric Socket and Light Switch Cover, Protector, and Guard to Prevent Accidental Switch Off - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81-qxOXDklL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Would this cover a UK light switch?** A: The SwitchSafe original covers small standard UK light switches ,however we also sell the SwitchSafe model 2 on Amazon, for small switches requiring access to switch the light on and off occasionally (but not accidentally!) and the SwitchSafe Model 3 , which is specifically designed to cover larger light switches. **Q: Do you have cover for hob and fan switch which is a little bigger than light switch? if you have it, where can i get it? thanks** A: Hi there, The largest size covers we do are either our model 3 or large switch bridges. These would both fit a switch up to 31.5mm long x 17mm wide with a depth (i.e sticking out proud from the socket surface) of up to 10mm. The model 3 has one side wall removed to allow occasional switching on and off and the bridge has both side walls removed so can be used for central switches on a gang of 3 switches and also for wider switches creating a deterrant bridge to accidental switch off. **Q: We need a solution to our one year old turning off our wifi booster box at the wall. This may be it but could he pull it off the socket?** A: The SwitchSafe was designed to stop exactly this, and as you can see from our feedback a number of our past customers have bought the SwitchSafe for this purpose and have been very happy with the results.If you ensure the socket face that the SwitchSafe is being adhered to is clean, dry and free from grease and press the unit firmly in place on the socket and hold it there for 30 seconds and then ensure it is undisturbed for at least 30 mins, it would take a very strong and very determined 1 year old to remove it! **Q: What's the maximum size of switch that this will cover?** A: The max switch width the Switch safe fits is 1.35 cms width, by 2.5 cms length, however we are currently in production of our also patented SwitchSafe switch covers that fit the wider EU style switch up to 1.60 cm width.
