YES!
Probably the best looking one I have seen, ever.....
You might have said, but: what kind of wood is the frame?

Are you absolutely certain the LED is rated for mains voltage? Most are not. I’ve bought them assuming to be OK, because the switch is classed as OK, but they burn out instantly. Switches with mains voltage LEDs are available, but they seem to be few and far between. Have a look at the third page of this data sheet. It specifically states LED voltage at 230V. This would be fine and I'm using one. See pictures for wiring. https://docs.rs-online.com/00b6/0900766b81587e70.pdfThis one is for 22mm cutout.   |

Thanks...
The led is 230v, but I'm still unsure about wires... will need someone to measure that switch.

This is the advice I followed.
Looking at the contact configuration diagram on the datasheet, you could use terminals 3 & 4 - the 'normally open' switch contacts to make/break the live wire.
The two centre terminals are presumably the LED. One terminal would need to be wired to the unswitched mains line & the other to the 'on' side of the switched mains line.
I’ll try to draw a diagram tomorrow morning. I had hoped that the photos were clear enough.

Words may be easier that a diagram. You follow at your own risk; I'm no expert and i just followed the advice of people I trust.
This is what I did except my colours are different:
1) You don't need the yellows; get rid of them
2) Splice the left hand blue into the black so that you still have a long black and the shortened blue joins into it,
3) Connect the black to the right hand blue with a capacitor of the correct value (e.g RS Components Stock No. 8773614),
4) You now have three long wires, red, black and blue.
It this the only switch you are using with your turntable or do you have an extra mains switch?

Good luck. Out of interest, where did you get your switch from?

It’s a good find. I couldn’t find any on ebay with a mains voltage LED.
