| Well if you have the metal casing insulated from the connections then you are sort of ok.If they ever wear through the cardboard you will get a connection and maybe get shocked or a burned switch etc.The real way to make sure you're good is to replace the entire switch casing and all not just the inner part.
Over the years different manufacturers put the contacts at different points on the socket.Some side some bottom etc.Generally the outer casing was manufacturered to fit that particular set up and a different design may not fit well enough to be safe. |
