Leviton 1223-2WL – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the locking toggle on the Leviton 1223 switch actually do?
The toggle actuator locks so the switch can't be flipped casually, which keeps someone from shutting down a machine circuit or a lighting zone by brushing past it. It's the reason this one gets specified for equipment and machinery control and for tamper-prone corridors and common areas rather than a plain toggle.
2) Do I need two of these to wire a 3-way circuit?
Yes. A 3-way setup controls one load from two locations, so you need a switch at each point. The Leviton 1223 is the 3-way device, so two of them (or one paired with an existing 3-way) complete the circuit. Single-location control calls for a single-pole switch instead, not this one.
3) What is the difference between an industrial grade switch like this and a spec or residential grade toggle?
Grade is about cycle life and internal construction, not the rating on the yoke. The 1223 is built to industrial grade, the heaviest of the common tiers, for openings and circuits that get switched constantly over a long service life. Residential grade 15A devices are the wrong choice on a 20A commercial branch circuit or a machine control point.
4) Can I use the Leviton 1223 to control a motor or equipment circuit, not just lights?
Yes, within its 20A 120/277V AC rating it is used for lighting, motor and equipment loads in commercial and industrial facilities, including machinery control circuits. Size the load to the 20A rating and the locking toggle gives you protection against someone switching the equipment off unintentionally.
5) Is this switch quiet enough for an occupied office or patient area?
It uses a quiet AC switching mechanism, so actuation noise is minimal. That makes it workable in offices, healthcare spaces and other areas where a loud snap from a toggle would be noticed.
6) Does a wall plate come with the Leviton 1223 switch?
No plate is included. The 1223-2IL and 1223-2WL are the switch devices only, so order a matching toggle-style wall plate separately in the ivory or white finish you've chosen.
