Leviton S08-CS315-2WS 3-way Toggle Switch 15A 120/277V

Product Description

The LEVITON MFG CO S08-CS315-2WS is a commercial specification grade 3-way toggle switch designed for reliable control of lighting circuits in demanding commercial and residential environments. Rated at 15 amps and 120/277 volts, it supports motor loads up to 1/2 HP at 120 volts and 2 HP at 240 volts. The switch features large silver-cadmium oxide contacts engineered for extended service life under repeated switching cycles. Captive mounting screws speed up installation, and large-head terminal screws are backed out and staked for fast side wiring of conductors up to No. 10 copper wire. Licensed electricians and commercial electrical contractors are the primary installers of this device.

This 3-way switch is suited for commercial office buildings, retail spaces, warehouses, and multi-switch lighting control applications where specification grade components are required. Its heavy-gauge rust-resistant steel mounting strap and break-off plaster ears allow precise alignment in standard single-gang electrical boxes. The white finish is compatible with standard decorator wallplates. It is appropriate for use in both 120-volt and 277-volt lighting circuits, making it a practical choice for commercial fluorescent and LED lighting systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and all applicable local codes. De-energize the circuit at the breaker panel and verify the circuit is dead with a voltage tester before beginning any wiring work. Use the side-wiring terminals for No. 10 copper conductors where required. Do not exceed the published amperage, voltage, or motor load ratings marked on the device.
