Abstract: A lighted escutcheon plate for power distribution equipment includes an escutcheon plate in electrical communication with a power distribution circuit; and a plurality of LED bulbs, generally green or alternatively red, mounted on the escutcheon plate, so as to provide a visual indication of an open circuit status by lighting when the power distribution circuit is opened. The plate also includes a plurality of LED bulbs, generally red or alternatively green, mounted on the escutcheon plate, so as to provide a visual indication of a close circuit status by lighting when the power distribution circuit is closed. For tripped circuit conditions the plate includes a plurality of LED bulbs, generally yellow or amber, mounted on the escutcheon plate, so as to provide a visual indication of a trip circuit status by lighting when the power distribution circuit is tripped.
