Leviton 5672-2 illuminated rocker switch
The Leviton 5672-2 is a single-pole rocker wall switch rated 15A at 120V for residential lighting and fan circuits. Its light-almond finish and illuminated rocker help homeowners locate the switch in darkness. The device suits DIYers and electricians wiring standard tungsten, fluorescent or resistive loads. It is not for buyers who need three-way or four-way switching control.
Thermals noise and power draw
The switch operates passively with no fan or active cooling, so it produces no audible noise during normal use. Power draw is limited to the connected load up to the 15A rating, while motor loads are limited to 80% of that rating. No external power supply or additional circuitry is required for operation. The simple mechanical design avoids standby consumption.
Build quality and connectors
The Decora-style rocker features a border that shields against dust and prevents binding inside the wallplate. Side-wiring terminals accept both solid and stranded conductors to simplify installation. Grounding terminals and back-wire capability provide flexible wiring options. Each unit is individually packaged for clean handling on site.

Questions about this item
How do I wire the 5672-2 single-pole switch and what is the common mistake?
Connect line and load to the two brass screws and ground to the green screw; the step often missed is attaching the ground wire to the grounding terminal.
What part of the 5672-2 will need replacement first under normal use?
The illuminated rocker's internal lamp is the only consumable component; when it no longer glows with the load off, replace the entire switch.
What load limit appears first when the 5672-2 runs a motor continuously?
Motor capacity is capped at 80 % of the 15 A rating, so sustained motor loads above 12 A will hit the limit before the resistive rating.
