Hubbell HBL1556 15A Toggle Switch

The Hubbell HBL1556 is a 15 amp single-pole double-throw toggle switch rated for 120/277V AC. It is designed for commercial and residential lighting circuits that require momentary contact operation. The brown finish suits standard wall plates and the shatter-resistant body meets UL safety standards.

Back and Side Wiring With Screw Terminals

The switch accepts 14 to 10 AWG conductors using back-wire push-in or side-wire screw terminals. Strip insulation to the gauge mark, tighten screws firmly, and verify the wire is captured under the clamp. A common error is inserting solid wire into the back entry without confirming the spring contact has engaged, which can leave the circuit open.

For Momentary Lighting Control Circuits

This switch suits installers who need a maintained three-position toggle with momentary action for lighting or fan control. It is not suited for circuits that require a maintained on-off-on sequence or for loads exceeding the 15 amp or 1/2 horsepower rating. Buyers needing a standard maintained toggle or a different voltage rating should select another device.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the toggle switch is functioning correctly after wiring it to a 120/277V AC circuit?

After installation, operate the toggle through all three positions; the connected load should respond instantly in each position without flickering or delay, confirming the momentary single-pole/double-throw mechanism is working as designed.

What components are included with the HBL1556 and what additional items are required for installation?

The package contains the brown toggle switch with screw terminals rated for 14 to 10 AWG wire; you must supply appropriate gauge wire, wire connectors, and a compatible wall box separately.

Which version of this switch should I choose for a 15 A lighting circuit at 277V?

The HBL1556 is a single model rated 15 A at 120/277V AC with a 1/2 hp motor rating; select this version when your circuit matches those voltage and amperage specifications.
