20 A 120 V Illuminated Rocker Switch

The Leviton 5631-2W is a single-pole AC quiet switch rated at 20 amps and 120 volts. Its white Decora-style rocker illuminates when the load is off, providing a clear visual indicator in low-light conditions. The switch fits standard wall-mount installations and uses a polyester housing for durability.

Suits residential lighting circuits needing

Electricians and homeowners wiring 20 A branch circuits will appreciate the illuminated handle and dual grounding options. The device is not suited for circuits requiring a pilot light that glows when the load is on, nor for installations that demand a higher voltage or current rating than 120 V and 20 A.

Single-pole switching with off-state illumination

The defining characteristic is the rocker that lights only when the connected load is de-energised, allowing occupants to locate the switch in darkness without indicating circuit status. This behaviour is fixed by the switch function and cannot be changed to on-state illumination or momentary operation.

Questions about this item

Will the 4.191 cm x 4.3942 cm x 11.2014 cm body fit a standard US wall box?

The dimensions match a typical Decora opening, so it mounts in a standard single-gang box with the supplied screws.

Which wiring terminals should I use for solid versus stranded conductors?

Both back-wire and side-wire terminals accept solid and stranded wire; strip to the gauge marked on the device and tighten each screw firmly.

How do I replace the illuminated handle if the lamp fails?

The handle is integral to the switch; when the illumination stops, replace the entire 5631-2W unit.
