Except when

Is except when the correct words and the best word to use here?

The protection is always on except when my daughter takes it off to play with it.

Thanks

Anonymous The protection is always on except when my daughter takes it off to play with it. Correct, though it's murky what the situation is. 'except if', 'except when', 'except where', and similar constructions are all possible.
