Ergonomic switches

This line of single-pole and 3-way commercial and industrial pilot light and lighted handle switches now features an ergonomic external back wire clamp design. With this switch design, there is no need for internal back wiring holes. Instead, the installer inserts the wire under the external clamp, which is serrated for better gripping retention, and tightens the terminal screws to the proper torque value.
