Can I use WD40 on light switches?????

pjran

Please could someone advise if its safe to use a lubricant like WD40 on light switches. One of the switches is rather hard to push on but I'm not sure its safe to use any liquid on a light switch.
Thanks

ive seen electricians using wd40 to dispell moisture on live fittings and the stuff turns into a flame thrower from the can, !!.
i would definatley say no to that one, why dont you just replace it, most of the time its a 2min job approx cost £1.50 ? although that said i would recomend that an electrician does it if your not sure what you are doing.
