Diversitech 16571 Single Pole Switch 15A 120V White

Product Description

The DIVERSITECH 16571 is a single-pole electrical switch rated for 15 amps, 0.5 HP, and 120 volts, finished in white. It is designed for controlling electrical circuits in residential and light commercial applications where a standard toggle switch is required. The white finish suits most standard wall plates and enclosures. Electricians and HVAC technicians install this switch for general circuit control, including fan motors, lighting circuits, and auxiliary equipment. The 0.5 HP motor rating makes it suitable for small motor loads in addition to standard resistive and lighting loads.

This switch is appropriate for residential wiring applications and light commercial electrical installations. It fits standard single-gang electrical boxes and works with conventional wall plates. Common installation scenarios include HVAC auxiliary circuits, utility room lighting, fan control, and general-purpose branch circuit switching. The 120-volt rating aligns with standard North American single-phase branch circuits.
