Pass & Seymour 2622 Specification Grade 3-Way Decorator Switch, 20A/120-277V

The Pass & Seymour 2622 Specification Grade Decorator Switch is a 3-way, back and side-wire device rated 20A at 120/277V, engineered for commercial and industrial wiring applications that demand consistent, long-term performance. This decorator-style switch combines an impact-resistant polycarbonate body with high-conductivity brass terminals and carries CSA, UL, and cULus listings for code-compliant installations. The switch is available in Brown, Ivory, and White finishes, allowing electrical contractors and facility managers to match existing decorator wiring device color schemes while relying on the same specification-grade construction and ratings across every color option.

  • Durable Construction: Impact-resistant polycarbonate back body and frame stand up to demanding commercial and industrial environments.
  • Smooth, Quiet Operation: Cushioned thermoplastic paddle assures smooth, quiet, long-term switching action.
  • High-Conductivity Terminals: Terminals are made of high-conductivity brass and serrated for maximum wire-gripping strength.
  • Integral Auto-Ground Clip: Provides positive grounding to metal boxes without additional wiring steps.
  • Ready-to-Install: All terminal screws are backed out at the factory for faster field installation.
  • Single Rocking Butterfly Contact: A unique design with significantly fewer moving parts delivers long-term, consistent performance.
  • Tri-Drive Screws: Tri-drive ground, terminal, and mounting screws support multiple driver types on the job site.
  • Silver Alloy Contacts: Contacts are integrally formed to the butterfly actuator for reliable, repeatable switching.

Pass & Seymour 2622 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can the Pass & Seymour 2622 decorator switch be used on a 277V lighting circuit?
Yes. The 2622 is rated 20A at 120/277V, so it works on both 120V branch circuits and 277V commercial lighting legs. That dual rating is why it shows up in office and industrial fluorescent and LED lighting control as well as standard 120V receptacle-circuit switching.
2) Is the 2622 a single-pole or 3-way switch, and can I use it alone?
It is a 3-way device. A 3-way switch controls one light from two locations, so it has to be installed as a pair with a second 3-way and a traveler pair between them. If you only need one control point, a 3-way can be wired as single-pole using the common and one traveler, but for a straight one-location job a single-pole switch such as the Leviton 1221-2W specification grade 20A 120/277V device is the correct part.
3) What wire size does the Pass & Seymour 2622 accept, and can I back-wire it?
Both. The 2622 is a back and side wire device using an internal screw-pressure plate, and it takes #14 through #10 AWG stranded or solid copper or copper-clad conductors. The pressure plate is what allows #10 to land on a back-wire device, which matters on 20A commercial branch circuits run in #10 for voltage drop. Terminal screws ship backed out from the factory.
4) Will this decorator switch fit a standard toggle wall plate?
No. The 2622 uses a rocker paddle, so it needs a decorator (rectangular opening) wall plate, not a toggle plate. If you are replacing toggles and want to keep the existing plates, a toggle-style specification grade device like the Leviton 1223-PLR 3-way 20A switch is the shape that drops into a toggle opening.
5) What is the closest 3-way alternative to the Pass & Seymour 2622 if the job calls for a toggle instead of a rocker?
The Leviton 1223-PLR is a 3-way extra heavy-duty industrial grade toggle switch rated 20 amps at 120 volts, and it includes a pilot light. The Pass & Seymour 2622 is a 3-way decorator rocker rated 20A at 120/277V with back and side wire terminations. Choose the 2622 where the device scheme is decorator style and the circuit may be 277V; choose the 1223-PLR where a toggle actuator and a pilot light indication are wanted on a 120V circuit.
6) We need to stop tenants from switching a circuit. Is there a locking version comparable to the Pass & Seymour 2622?
The Pass & Seymour 2622 is a standard 3-way decorator rocker with no locking provision. For a key-locked device, the Bryant 4802L is a 4 Series single-pole locking AC switch rated 20A at 277V, and the Leviton 1221-2IL is an industrial grade locking toggle switch, SPST 1-pole, 20A at 120/277V. Both locking options are single-pole, so they control from one location only; a 3-way circuit still needs the 2622 or another 3-way device at the second point.
7) Do I need a separate ground pigtail with this switch in a metal box?
No. The 2622 has an integral auto-ground clip that bonds the yoke to a grounded metal box through the mounting screw, so no extra bonding jumper is required for that case. In a nonmetallic box you still land the equipment grounding conductor on the green tri-drive ground screw.
8) What colors does the Pass & Seymour 2622 3-way switch come in, and do the part numbers change?
Three colors, each with its own catalog number: Brown is 2622, Ivory is 2623-I, and White is 26252-W. Ratings and construction are the same across all three, so you can standardize a building on one device and still match brown, ivory, or white plates floor by floor. The paddle finish is matte.
9) I need a lighted or locking 20A switch instead of a plain 3-way. What else is there?
The 2622 has no pilot light and no locking feature. For an illuminated device, Bryant's 4801GLI is a lighted 20A 277V AC switch; for a key or lock-controlled single pole, the Bryant 4802L locking AC switch is 20A 277V, and Leviton's 1221-2IL is an industrial grade locking toggle rated 20A 120/277V. If you want 3-way plus a pilot light, the Leviton 1223-PLR covers that combination.
10) Does a lighted switch like the Bryant 4801GLI do the same job as the Pass & Seymour 2622?
No. The Bryant 4801GLI is a 4-Series lighted AC switch rated 20A at 277V, so the handle illuminates to locate the device in a dark space. The Pass & Seymour 2622 is a 3-way decorator rocker rated 20A at 120/277V with no illumination. If the requirement is two-location control, the 2622 is the correct device; if it is finding the switch in an unlit corridor, the 4801GLI addresses that instead.
11) What is the difference between the Pass & Seymour 2622 and the Eaton decorator duplex combination switch?
Both are decorator-style devices, but the Eaton 275V is a decorator duplex combination switch with auto-ground rated 15A in white, putting two switched functions in one gang. The Pass & Seymour 2622 is a single 3-way decorator rocker rated 20A at 120/277V with an integral auto-ground clip, offered in Brown, Ivory, and White. Pick the Eaton where two circuits must share one opening at 15A; pick the 2622 where a single 20A three-way leg is needed or where brown or ivory is required to match existing devices.
12) For a motor or two-direction control circuit, is the Pass & Seymour 2622 the right switch?
The Pass & Seymour 2622 is a 3-way lighting control device rated 20A at 120/277V for switching the same load from two locations. For a center-off or double-throw application, the Leviton 1286-W is a 20A DPDT center-off toggle switch in industrial/specification grade, which provides the two-position-plus-off action the 2622 does not have.
13) What makes the 2622 specification grade rather than a residential switch?
Construction. The body and frame are impact-resistant polycarbonate thermoplastic, terminals are high-conductivity brass and serrated to grip the conductor, and the mechanism is a single rocking butterfly contact with integrally formed silver alloy contacts, meaning fewer moving parts to wear. Combined with the 20A rating and #10 wire capacity, that is the build intended for high-cycle commercial and industrial switching rather than a 15A residential device.
14) Do I need special screwdrivers to install the Pass & Seymour 2622?
No. The ground, terminal, and mounting screws are all tri-drive, so a flat blade, Phillips, or square driver will turn them. Useful on a trim-out crew where not everyone is carrying the same bit.
