Abstract
A receptacle for a switch in a control panel accepts either a long or a short switch. The receptacle accommodates a footprint of a long switch and has structure supporting a set of bearing areas for engaging a housing of a long switch and support structure for a second set of bearing areas for engaging a housing of a short switch. The bearing areas for the short switch are positioned adjacent to long edges of the footprint of the long switch. Such receptacles permit design of a standard control panel which accommodates different combinations and arrangements of control switches.
