Leviton 1201-2L – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can the Leviton 1201-2L switch be used on a 277V lighting circuit?
Yes. The Leviton 1201-2L is rated 15A at 277V, which is the voltage used on the high-leg lighting branch circuits in most commercial buildings fed from a 480/277V system. It switches one circuit as a single-pole device, so it handles straight on/off control of a 277V lighting load up to 15 amps.
2) What does the locking feature on the Leviton 1201-2L actually do?
The 1201-2L uses a locking actuator rather than a standard toggle, so the switch cannot be flipped by hand or by a passing cart or shoulder. That is what makes it the choice for circuits that have to stay in one position: corridor and exterior lighting, mechanical room feeds, and anywhere a tenant or the public can reach the plate. It prevents unintended actuation, it is not a disconnect or a lockout device for servicing.
3) Can I use the Leviton 1201-2L to switch a light from two locations?
No. The 1201-2L is a 1-pole switch, so it controls one circuit from one location only. Three-way control from two switch points needs a 3-way device at each location, and four-way control needs a 3-way at each end with a 4-way in between.
4) How many Leviton 1201-2L switches come in a box?
The 1201-2L is sold 100 switches to the pack, which is the quantity a contractor or facility stores buys when standardizing locking switches across a building or wiring a new floor. If you need one or two for a single replacement, this is a bulk pack, not a single-device item.
5) Will a 277V switch work on a standard 120V circuit?
A 15A 277V rated device like the 1201-2L is an AC general-use switch for the higher commercial voltage, and its rating covers use at 277V. Do not assume it substitutes for a 120V residential-grade switch on a dwelling branch circuit; match the device rating to the circuit voltage on your drawings. If your circuit is 120V lighting, order a 120V rated switch instead.
6) What is the exact part number I should order for the Leviton locking switch at 15A 277V?
The manufacturer part number is Leviton 1201-2L. That is the single-pole, 15A, 277V locking switch. Quote that number when you want the locking actuator version rather than a standard toggle in the same amperage and voltage.
7) Is the Leviton 1201-2L a commercial-grade switch or a residential one?
It is built as a commercial-duty device for repeated use in professional installations, which is the reason it shows up on lighting control circuits and in facility retrofits rather than in homes. The 277V rating alone puts it in commercial territory, since residential branch circuits do not run at that voltage.
