You may want to take another look at the origional reason for the lighted
switch. Some lighted switches only have the light on when the main light is
not on. In his case he wants the switch light on when the attic light is
on.

Without a neutral or other return how would the light on the switch come on
when only one side is connected ?



I guess I need to clearify this. It was one of those stackable
switches, not one where the switch "handle" lights up. It was a
separate RED indicator below the switch. and the switch operated
sideways (horizontal). This red light lit up when the switch was turned
on. A neutral IS needed.

So use the sort that has the lighted handle. If the light is out,
your attic isn't. If it's on, it's a night light.

BTW. What are those "stackable" switch/outlets called anyhow?
