Are we talking about little desktop switches with the keyhole slots in? Fischer do nice retail packs of plugs and screws that don't need you to buy in quantities of 500, they're obviously at an inflated cost though.

I tend to use Reisser 3.5 or 4mm x 16 or 20 long Pan head screws - depending on the device hole size. For plugs, Fischer SX 5x25 which will accomodate 3.5 & 4 mm screws.

Larger devices may require a 4x35 or 30 screw and possibly a 6mm SX plug.
