What is a pushbutton receptacle? Never heard of it/them! You should never pull a wire from any outlet, you pull the plug that the wires are attached to if you want to disconnect the electricity from an outlet.




I wondered too...possibly a GFI outlet ?


Thanks guys..as for what is a pushbutton receptacle....Its been around for years and used mostly on lamps. You either turn it off/on. There are also ones that have a small chain. If your still not familiar...google it.

That is a pushbutton SOCKET.


Clare, I'm glad that for once I can correct YOU.

The term you are seeking is "switch". As in,
push button SWITCH.
