Industrial Toggle Switch

The Hubbell HBL1386 is a double-pole, double-throw toggle switch rated for 20A at 120/277V AC. It provides a maintained switching function with three handle positions including a centre off. The device accepts #14 to #10 AWG solid or stranded copper wire via back and side wiring terminals. It is built for industrial electrical installations requiring reliable manual control.

Thermals And Durability

The nylon toggle and housing meet UL 94V-2 flammability requirements for fire safety. An operating temperature range of -40°F to 167°F (-40°C to 75°C) ensures stable performance in harsh ambient conditions. Large brass binding head screws with deep slots secure conductors firmly to minimise resistive heating. UL Listing and CSA Certification confirm compliance with North American safety standards.

Sustained Load Behaviour

The switch supports motor loads up to 1 horsepower continuously at rated voltage. Its industrial-grade construction maintains consistent contact integrity through repeated cycling under full 20A demand. The integrated strip gauge promotes accurate wire preparation for long-term connection reliability. This unit is not suited for applications requiring momentary contact action or pilot light indication.

Questions about this item

How do I wire the HBL1386 and which step causes the most mistakes?

Use the integrated strip gauge to remove the correct insulation length for #14 to #10 AWG copper wire, then tighten the large brass binding-head screws on the back or side terminals; the step most often done wrong is skipping the gauge and leaving too much bare conductor exposed.

What part of this switch will need replacement first under normal use?

The nylon toggle and housing are the primary wear items; repeated actuation can loosen the mechanism or crack the housing over time, requiring full switch replacement.

What limit appears first when the switch runs continuously at full load?

The 20A, 120/277V AC rating and the -40°F to 167°F operating temperature range are the first boundaries reached under sustained use; exceeding either can cause premature failure.
