Lutron ctcl-153p-la Slide Dimmer 600W 3-way Light Almond

Product Description

The LUTRON ctcl-153p-la is a single-pole, 3-way slide dimmer from the Skylark Contour Series, designed for controlling LED, CFL, halogen, and incandescent lamp loads up to 600 watts at 120 volts and 60 Hz. It features a captive linear slide control with a rocker switch, allowing smooth, reliable dimming in standard residential wiring configurations. The screw terminal connection supports straightforward field wiring, and the light almond finish integrates cleanly with common wall plate colors. Licensed electricians and knowledgeable installers handle this device in single-pole or 3-way switch leg applications.

This dimmer is suited for residential lighting circuits where multi-location dimming control is required. The 3-way configuration allows the fixture to be controlled from two separate switch locations, a common requirement in hallways, stairwells, and large rooms. It operates across a temperature range of 32 to 104 degrees F, making it appropriate for conditioned interior spaces. The Skylark Contour Series is a widely recognized Lutron line used across residential retrofit and new-construction electrical projects.
