B-LINE AH1224GY – Frequently Asked Questions
1) When do I need a four-way switch like the Arrow Hart AH1224GY instead of a three-way?
A four-way switch goes in the middle of a circuit controlled from three or more locations. Two three-way switches sit at each end, and every additional control point in between is a four-way like the AH1224GY. Use it for a corridor with three doors, a stairwell with a switch on each landing, or a shop floor controlled from multiple entries. If you only have two control points, you want two three-ways and no four-way at all.
2) Will the Arrow Hart AH1224GY work on a 277V lighting circuit?
Yes. It is rated 120/277 V, so it covers both standard 120V branch circuits and 277V commercial fluorescent or LED lighting off a 480/277 wye system. Amperage rating is 20A.
3) What wire size can I land on this Arrow Hart industrial toggle switch?
The terminals accept #14 through #10 AWG copper on screw terminals, which covers 15A and 20A branch circuits and 10 AWG runs pulled up for voltage drop on long 277V lighting homeruns. Terminal screws are brass.
4) Can I use this four-way switch by itself to control a light from one spot?
No. A four-way has no on/off marking and no single-pole function in the way a standard switch does; it only swaps travelers between two three-way switches. For a single control point use a single-pole 20A toggle instead, and for two points use a pair of three-ways. The AH1224GY belongs only in the middle of a multi-location circuit.
5) Can I back-wire this switch or do I have to use the side screws?
Both. The AH1224GY is a back and side wiring device, so you can feed the conductors into the back clamp terminals or wrap them on the side screws, whichever gives you room in the box. Note this is a four-way, so it carries four traveler terminals plus ground, not two.
6) Is this Arrow Hart toggle switch UL listed for commercial work?
It is cULus Listed, so it is accepted for both US and Canadian installations, and it is also NAFTA compliant for procurement paperwork. Application class is industrial grade rather than residential spec.
7) Will a gray Arrow Hart AH1224GY match the other devices on my wall plates?
The device color is gray, which is the common industrial-grade color alongside brown and ivory. If your existing corridor switches are white or ivory, a gray toggle will read as a mismatch in the same gang. The body material is polycarbonate.
8) What is the exact part number to order this Eaton Arrow Hart four-way switch?
Order it as AH1224GY, the gray 20A 120/277V industrial grade four-way toggle from the Eaton Arrow Hart line. The GY suffix is the gray color.
