Cooper Wiring Devices AH1221V 20A Industrial Toggle Wall Switch

Product Description

The COOPER WIRING DEVICES AH1221V is a single-pole, industrial-grade toggle wall switch rated for 20 amps and 120 to 277 VAC. It is designed for use in fluorescent lighting circuits and built to handle the demands of commercial and industrial environments. The switch carries an operating temperature range of -4 to 140 degrees F, making it suitable for installations in unconditioned mechanical spaces, warehouses, and similar facilities. Licensed electricians install this device as part of branch circuit wiring where a robust, code-compliant switching solution is required.

This switch is suited for single-phase fluorescent lighting applications in commercial, industrial, and light-manufacturing settings. Its wide voltage rating of 120 to 277 VAC allows use across common North American branch circuit configurations, including 277-volt lighting circuits frequently found in commercial buildings. The ivory finish is standard for blending with common wallplate colors in office and industrial environments. It is packaged individually and sold in single-unit quantities.
