Red 3-Way Pilot Light Switch for Commercial Lighting
The Hubbell HBL1223PL is a red toggle switch rated for 20 A at 120/277 V AC with a built-in pilot light. It supports three-way switching circuits and accepts back or side wiring with screw terminals for 14 to 10 AWG conductors. UL Listed and shatter-resistant, it suits new commercial and industrial lighting installations.
Sustained 20 A Operation with Pilot Indicator
The switch maintains its 20 A rating under continuous load and the pilot light provides constant circuit status visibility. Its maintained toggle action stays in position without spring return and the shatter-resistant body resists impact during daily use in high-traffic areas. The 1 hp motor rating supports small fan or equipment loads on the same circuit.
Verify Three-Way Wiring and Voltage Compatibility
Confirm the existing circuit uses a three-way configuration and operates at 120 or 277 V AC before ordering. The device requires a standard wall box and screw-terminal connections for solid copper wire between 14 and 10 AWG. It is not suited for low-voltage control circuits or single-pole only applications.

Questions about this item
How much heat does the pilot light add when the HBL1223PL runs continuously on a 120/277 V AC circuit?
The red pilot light draws only a few milliwatts, so its heat contribution is negligible compared with the 20 A load the switch is rated to carry.
What wiring must already be in place for the HBL1223PL to function as a 3-way switch?
A three-conductor cable between the two switch locations and a neutral in at least one box are required for the 3-way circuit to operate correctly.
Will the HBL1223PL fit in a standard wall box alongside older 14 AWG wiring?
Yes, the screw terminals accept 14 AWG to 10 AWG conductors, so existing 14 AWG wire can be reused without modification.
