Allied either..

Thank you all! I Googled a million images with every conceivable
description and nothing showed up. There was nothing on the switch
itself to identify it, should have looked more carefully at the
bracket.

These may date back to the 60's not sure, and they may be discontinued
as I can't find them anywhere on the Net.

rated 10 amps each. Mine are made by Bryant. They snap into a stamped
metal triplex "bracket" which then mounts in any standard small
rectangular electric box. With the box mounted with its long dimension
horizontal, the three switches would toggle up and down.

You should have showed a pic. You didn't say if you looked on Allied.
or other electronics sites, even Grainger. Why don't you pick one
like you need from the images. Just make sure its rated for 120 VAC
and 15 amps. DC requires more amps, so 10 DC should be fine with a
120VAC switch.
