Decora Single-Pole Switch 15 Amp, Self-Grounding, Light Almond, Model 5601-P2T
The Leviton Decora 5601-P2T is a 15A single-pole switch engineered for professional electricians and contractors who need a dependable, code-compliant solution on every job site. Rated for 120/277V, it handles everything from standard residential circuits to commercial lighting loads up to 1/2HP at 120V — making it equally at home in a new-build subdivision or a commercial tenant improvement. The thermoplastic body and actuator offer long-term durability, while dual termination options (Quickwire push-in and side wiring) speed up rough-in and trim-out on busy sites. Its light almond Decora-style rocker blends cleanly into matching wallplate configurations, and CSA/UL listing ensures full compliance with Canadian electrical codes.
