Leviton Telcom A5621-2I Antimicrobial Single-pole Switch 20A

Product Description

The LEVITON TELCOM A5621-2I is a specification-grade, single-pole switch rated for 20-amp service, finished in ivory and incorporating an antimicrobial treatment into the device housing. Specification-grade switches are built to tighter tolerances than residential-grade units, making them the standard choice for commercial, institutional, and light industrial wiring projects. The antimicrobial additive is molded into the plastic body to inhibit the growth of bacteria and mold on the switch surface. Licensed electricians and facilities maintenance personnel install this device as part of branch-circuit wiring in environments where hygiene standards are a priority.

This switch is well suited for healthcare facilities, schools, food-service environments, and other commercial spaces where surface cleanliness is a code or facility requirement. Its 20-amp rating accommodates branch circuits serving heavier loads than a standard 15-amp device, making it appropriate for circuits feeding larger appliances, HVAC equipment controls, or high-draw lighting systems. The ivory finish matches standard ivory wallplates common in commercial construction.

Key Features

• Specification-grade construction built to tighter performance tolerances than residential-grade switches
• Antimicrobial treatment molded into the housing to inhibit bacterial and mold growth on the surface
• 20-amp rating supports heavier branch-circuit loads beyond the capacity of standard 15-amp devices
• Single-pole configuration for standard on/off control of a circuit from one location
• Ivory finish compatible with standard commercial ivory wallplates

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style specification-grade single-pole switch for commercial and institutional branch-circuit wiring applications requiring a 20-amp, single-pole device.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and all applicable local codes. De-energize the branch circuit at the panel and verify zero voltage with a meter before wiring. Secure the device in a listed electrical box rated for the switch and the conductors used. Do not exceed the device amperage rating when sizing the circuit.
