Leviton Mfg Co 208-02651-02W Single Pole Switch 10 Pack

Product Description

The LEVITON MFG CO 208-02651-02W is a quiet single pole switch designed to control one fixture from a single location. Built for direct connection to both aluminum and copper wire, it features silver alloy contacts that reduce arcing and extend contact life. Large-head, hardened, triple-drive screws simplify installation and reduce cam-out during tightening. Break-off plaster ears allow the switch to be fitted flush with wallplate openings in standard electrical boxes. This switch is sold in a package of 10 units, making it suitable for multi-unit residential or light commercial electrical projects handled by licensed electricians.

The 208-02651-02W is suited for residential and light commercial wiring applications where a single pole switch is required to control a lighting fixture or load from one location. Its compatibility with aluminum, copper clad, and copper conductors makes it appropriate for both older aluminum-wired homes and new copper wiring installations. Terminal screws accept up to No. 10 conductors, covering a broad range of typical branch circuit wire gauges used in standard 15-amp and 20-amp lighting circuits.
