Leviton Mfg Co R51-05634-0IS Single Pole Duplex Switch

Product Description

The LEVITON MFG CO R51-05634-0IS is a single pole duplex switch designed to fit two single pole switches into one single gang wall space. Rated at 15 amps with voltage compatibility spanning 120 and 277 volts, it also supports motor loads up to 1/2 HP at 120 volts and 2 HP at 240 volts. The combined load across both switches must not exceed 20 amps. Finished in ivory, it is suited for standard residential and light commercial wiring applications. Licensed electricians install this device as part of branch circuit wiring covered under the National Electrical Code (NEC).

This duplex switch is used where two independent switching circuits must share a single gang box location, saving wall space without requiring a double gang cutout. Typical applications include controlling two separate lighting circuits, fans, or small motor loads from one wall position. It is appropriate for residential, commercial, and light industrial settings where 120V or 277V single pole switching is required. The ivory finish matches standard ivory-series wallplates and devices.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and all applicable local codes. Shut off and lock out the branch circuit breaker before any wiring work. Both switches share the gang space and their combined load must be managed to stay within the 20 amp total limit. Use appropriately rated wire and ensure the box fill calculations account for both switches per NEC guidelines.
