Leviton Telcom 1224-2IL Tamper-proof Key Toggle Switch

Product Description

The LEVITON TELCOM 1224-2IL is a 4-way tamper-proof key toggle switch designed for controlled access to lighting and electrical circuits. Key-operated switches restrict unauthorized switching, making this unit suitable for commercial, institutional, and industrial environments where circuit control must be limited to authorized personnel. The ivory finish integrates cleanly with standard wallplate configurations. Licensed electricians install this device as part of multi-location switching systems where security and access control are required alongside standard switching function.

This switch is used in 4-way switching configurations, typically installed between two 3-way switches to extend multi-location control in corridors, stairwells, mechanical rooms, and other areas where tamper resistance is a code or facility requirement. The key-operated mechanism ensures that only authorized users can toggle the circuit, reducing the risk of accidental or unauthorized shutdowns in sensitive environments.

Key Features

• Key-operated toggle mechanism prevents unauthorized switching
• 4-way switching configuration for multi-location circuit control
• Ivory finish compatible with standard decorator and toggle wallplates
• Tamper-proof design suited for commercial and institutional installations
• Sold as individual unit (each)

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation component for 4-way tamper-proof key switch applications in standard single-gang wiring configurations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements. De-energize the circuit at the breaker panel and verify absence of voltage before wiring. This switch is intended to replace the center switch in a multi-location 3-way and 4-way switching arrangement. Do not install in circuits exceeding the rated voltage or amperage for this device.
