Wall Switch for 120/277 V Circuits
The Hubbell HBL1202 is a brown toggle switch rated for 15 A at 120/277 V AC. It uses a double-pole, maintained-contact mechanism suitable for controlling lighting or motor loads up to 1/2 hp in residential or commercial wiring.
Replaces Single-Pole or Worn Double-Pole Units
This switch upgrades installations that require simultaneous disconnection of both hot conductors on 277 V lighting circuits. The jump is worth it when existing devices lack shatter-resistant construction or when screw terminals need to accept conductors from 14 AWG to 10 AWG.
Fits Standard Boxes with Back or Side Wiring
The device mounts in a standard wall box and offers both back-wire and side-wire entry with large brass binding-head screws and a strip gauge. Screw-terminal connections free up space behind the strap while providing secure termination for copper conductors.

Questions about this item
What wall-box depth and wire-gauge range does the HBL1202 toggle switch require?
The switch fits a standard wall box and accepts 14 AWG to 10 AWG conductors on its screw terminals.
Which wiring method and terminal style does the HBL1202 use, and what is the common installation error?
It uses back and side wiring with large brass binding-head screws; the frequent mistake is not using the strip gauge, leaving too much bare wire exposed.
When should the HBL1202 switch be replaced based on its resistance ratings?
Replace it if the toggle body shows cracks or shatter damage, since the housing is rated shatter- and crack-resistant as well as impact-resistant.
