Electrical switches

what is the best height for putting electrical switches?

gregzoll

Any height you want them. From finished floor height, 42" usually works best.

Switches to be used by occupants to control lighting, outlets, appliances or HVAC equipment, shall be located a distance from the floor no more than 48" to the top of the outlet box nor less than 15" to the bottom of the outlet box

I don't consider electrical switches to be very decorative. I guess it's just a matter of personal taste....

There are only two types. Conventional and decora.

Actually if you wanted to, you could place the switch on the ceiling. There are no real rules on where switches are placed height wise, until you get into ADA rules, and that is a different story.
