The cover member is constructed to include a hook fastener, a latch fastener, a first pair of clip fingers and a second pair of clip fingers. The hook fastener and latch fastener serve to enable the electric switch to be easily and quickly mounted on a wall in a device with which the electric switch is to be used while the first and second pair of clip fingers serve to hold the hook and latch fasteners tightly in place on the wall of the device when so mounted.
