Leviton 5621-2T 20A Single-pole Rocker Switch 120/277V

Product Description

The LEVITON 5621-2T is a 20 amp, single-pole Decora Plus rocker AC quiet switch rated for 120/277 volt operation. Designed for commercial and industrial environments, it meets Commercial Spec Grade standards for durability and performance under heavy-use conditions. The self-grounding design simplifies installation, and back-side wiring allows for a clean, efficient termination process. Finished in Light Almond, the 5621-2T fits standard Decora-style wallplates. Licensed electricians install this switch in commercial, institutional, and high-demand residential applications where a standard-grade device is not sufficient.

The 5621-2T is suited for single-pole switching circuits operating at 120 or 277 volts, making it compatible with both standard residential branch circuits and commercial 277-volt lighting systems commonly found in office buildings, retail spaces, schools, and industrial facilities. The quiet rocker mechanism reduces audible switching noise, which is a practical advantage in occupied spaces. Its Commercial Spec Grade rating indicates it is built for high cycle counts and demanding environments.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and all applicable local codes. Always shut off the branch circuit breaker and verify the circuit is de-energized with a non-contact voltage tester before handling any wiring. Back-side wiring terminals should be torqued to the value specified on the device or packaging. Do not use this switch on circuits exceeding 20 amps or on DC circuits, as it is rated for AC use only.
