Snapconnect SNAP1221PLR Pilot Light Wall Switch 20 A 120/277V AC

Pilot Light Switch for Industrial Circuits

The Snapconnect SNAP1221PLR is a single-pole toggle switch with an integrated red pilot light, rated for 20 A at 120/277V AC. It is built for industrial environments where a visible status indicator simplifies circuit monitoring. The thermoplastic housing provides impact resistance, and the unit carries a UL listing for code compliance. It suits electricians and facility managers who need a maintained-contact switch that clearly shows when a load is energised.

20 A Capacity with 2 hp Motor Rating

At 20 A the switch comfortably handles typical lighting banks and receptacles on 120 V or 277 V circuits, and it is rated for 2 hp motor loads. The pilot light draws minimal current while giving immediate visual confirmation of the on state. Headroom runs out when the connected load exceeds the 20 A rating or the 2 hp limit, so larger motors or high-draw heating elements require a higher-rated device. The maximum operating temperature of 167 Degrees F defines the upper ambient limit for continuous operation.

Modular Back-Wired Design for Quick Installation

The switch uses a modular wiring method with back-wire connections, reducing termination time inside standard industrial boxes. No special tools are needed beyond those used for conventional device wiring, and the single-gang form factor fits existing wall openings. It frees up labour on retrofit jobs where a pilot light must be added without replacing the box or pulling new conductors. Buyers who need multi-gang configurations, dimming control, or a locking actuator will need a different device.
