Hubbell HBL1201 Toggle Switch 15A
The Hubbell HBL1201 is a single-pole toggle switch rated 15 A at 120/277 V AC. It controls lighting or motor loads up to 1/2 hp in residential and light commercial wiring. The brown finish matches standard decorator plates. UL listed construction provides shatter, crack and impact resistance for durable service.
Wiring Compatibility Check
Verify the circuit uses 14 AWG to 10 AWG copper conductors for the screw terminals. The device accepts back and side wiring methods for flexible installation. Confirm the box depth accommodates the switch body and wiring bends. Ensure the supply voltage matches the 120/277 V AC rating before connecting.
Upgrade From Worn Toggle Switches
This switch replaces older single-pole toggles that show discoloration, loose action or cracked bodies. The impact-resistant housing and maintained contact design restore reliable on-off control. The step is worth it when the existing switch feels gritty, fails to hold position or shows heat damage on terminals.

Questions about this item
Does the HBL1201 toggle switch come with mounting screws or wire connectors, or must they be purchased separately?
The switch uses screw terminals for 14 to 10 AWG wire; mounting hardware and wire connectors are not included and must be sourced separately.
Should I choose the 120 V or 277 V rating for a standard household lighting circuit?
The device is rated for both 120 V and 277 V AC, so it works on a typical 120 V residential circuit without any extra selection.
What does the 15 A rating mean when the switch controls a 1/2 hp motor load?
The 15 A rating covers resistive loads, while the 1/2 hp rating ensures safe switching of motor loads such as fans within the same 120/277 V circuit.
