The attachment has wall surface parts assembled to the switch so as to surround the switch. A side face part along the parallel direction of the panel has an engagement part. Among the wall surface parts of the attachment, a side wall surface part facing the side face part in a state that the attachment is assembled to the panel has an engaged part with which the engagement part is engaged.
