Mend Electric Switch Turn

electric switches are slow?

My bathroom light switch takes about a second or two to turn on. How do I fix it ?

Could be an older "silent"mercury switch, in which a small pool of mercury completed the circuit when the switch handle was lifted to the up or 'on' position. These were sometimes known to slow with age as the mercury or it's pathway gradually deteriorated.

Contact your electricity supplier and ask if they can speed up the delivery of electricity to your house see what they say.
