I don't see what the problem is, it is a very nice scenery and the switch won't get touched until you get out of the shower and made of plastic anyways.

Tim,

There is no requirement for the switch to be 3 foot from the wet area.

Tim
Is there someplace that states this 3 ft. rule?

The update is a clearer picture and someone wanted to know if it was temped glass over the tub.

No, but their is this requirement....


404.4 Damp orWet Locations.
A surface-mounted switch
or circuit breaker in a damp or wet location shall be enclosed
in a weatherproof enclosure or cabinet that shall
comply with 312.2. A flush-mounted switch or circuit
breaker in a damp or wet location shall be equipped with a
weatherproof cover. Switches shall not be installed within
wet locations in tub or shower spaces unless installed as
part of a listed tub or shower assembly.

Now I dont see a shower in that location so now we can argue if this is a damp location....so put a weaterproof cover on it...lol
