A switching device includes a housing and a paddle actuator operably coupled to a front face of the housing and adapted to control a state of a load. The paddle actuator has a pair of opposing long sides and short sides and is configured to pivot about a hinge disposed proximate to one of the short sides of the paddle actuator. At least one component is disposed adjacent to the short side of the paddle actuator that is disposed proximate to the hinge and is configured to sense at least one condition. A control element is configured to control at least one of a sensing range and a sensitivity of the at least one component. The paddle actuator occupies at least 50% of the front face of the housing and the at least one component substantially occupies the remainder of the front face.
