The Leviton 5621-2E is a Commercial/Specification Grade Rocker Switch engineered for reliable, quiet on/off control in demanding electrical environments. Rated 120/277-Volt and 20-Amp, this 1-Pole AC Quiet switch delivers dependable single-circuit control for lighting and general load switching. Built to Commercial/Specification Grade standards, the 5621-2E is designed for the durability, repeated-cycle performance, and consistent contact action required in commercial, industrial, and institutional facilities where switches see heavy daily use. Its rocker-style actuator provides a modern, easy-to-operate profile that pairs well with standard decorator wallplates and gangable device configurations commonly found in office, retail, and multi-unit installations.

Key Features

  • Electrical Rating: 120/277-Volt, 20-Amp rating supports demanding commercial and industrial lighting and load circuits.
  • Single-Pole Configuration: 1-Pole switching provides straightforward on/off control for a single circuit, ideal for standard lighting and receptacle load applications.

Leviton 5621-2E – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can the Leviton 5621-2E rocker switch be used on a 277V lighting circuit?
Yes. The 5621-2E is rated 120/277V, so the same device works on standard 120V branch lighting and on 277V fixture circuits common in commercial buildings. That dual rating is why spec writers use one part number across both circuit types in an office or retail build instead of stocking two switches.
2) Is the Leviton 5621-2E a single-pole or three-way switch?
Single pole, one circuit, simple on/off. The 5621-2E is a 1-pole device, so it will not do three-way control from two locations. If you need two switches controlling the same lighting load, you need a 3-way device, not this one.
3) Will the Leviton 5621-2E handle a 20 amp lighting circuit?
It is rated 20A, so it suits a 20A branch circuit carrying lighting or general-purpose load. Pairing a 15A switch with a 20A circuit is a common mis-spec on commercial jobs; the 5621-2E avoids it.
4) What wallplate do I need for the Leviton 5621-2E rocker switch?
A decorator-style (rectangular opening) wallplate. The 5621-2E uses a rocker actuator on a standard device footprint, so toggle plates with the narrow slot will not fit. Plates are ordered separately, and the device is gangable for multi-switch banks.
5) What color is the Leviton 5621-2E, and will it match the other switches on the floor?
Black. The -2E suffix on the 5621 is the black finish, so if your existing devices are ivory, white or gray the rocker will not match. For a facility standardizing a look, order the 5621 in the color code that matches your installed plates.
6) Is a spec grade switch worth it over a residential grade one for a high-traffic building?
For a corridor, restroom or classroom switch cycled dozens of times a day, yes. The 5621-2E is built to Commercial/Specification Grade, which targets repeated-cycle durability and consistent contact action rather than the lighter duty a residential-grade switch is built for. Residential grade devices are also commonly 15A only, so they are the wrong choice on a 20A circuit.
7) Is the Leviton 5621-2E quiet enough for an office or patient room?
It uses an AC Quiet mechanism, so the switching action is near silent rather than the snap of an older toggle. That is the reason it gets specified in offices, guest rooms and healthcare spaces where switch noise carries.
8) What is the Leviton part number I should put on the order for this black 20A rocker?
Leviton 5621-2E. That is the manufacturer part number for the 1-pole, 20A, 120/277V black rocker switch, and it is the only configuration this model covers.
