Abstract
A slider assembly is for an electrical switch having an upper housing. The slider assembly includes a slider mechanism structured to be disposed on an exterior surface of the upper housing and a shutter structured to be disposed in an interior of said upper housing and to be coupled to said slider mechanism. The shutter includes a number of biasing members structured to engage and apply a bias force against interior sidewalls of said upper housing, thereby creating a friction force associated with movement of said slider mechanism.
