        Decora Edge 15 Amp Single Pole only has a black and green termination. No need for the neutral wire?
        ByDec 16, 2024

        Answer This Question

        Correct, Neutrals do not connect to standard single pole switches the hot, switch leg and ground does.

        By|Dec 17, 2024

          Single pole Switches only interrupt hot wires, never neutrals.

            Potentially hazardous weak part of switch
            Installation is easy but there is a weak point in the design and manufacture. Where the switch pivots, there is a place that cracks (happened twice on two switches). The plastic here is not robust and when it cracks the switch will literally come apart. This could be hazardous as it exposes energized metal contacts.
            by
              Switch behaves as expected... That said at some time w/I last 15 yrs.white doesn't mean the same white so potentially you might replace good switches then wall plates don't forget about the outlets and their plates and yea it's just noticeable enough from across a freshly painted empty room.

              First time using these and I absolutely LOVE them! Super easy to use and the unique design makes for a quicker installation. Yes they're a few buck more than the others but you'll make it up in time. Also, these have a very smooth and quiet function. The regular deco ones make a noise when you push them, which I've always found a bit annoying.

              A simple piece that is one of the best simple advances to the 'electric' trade in a while. I know its daily simple, but it makes the job that much easier, and keeps you ruffing some stuff in, and things 'working' while still some layout & planning is still happening, with out making it difficult to change stuff. (this helps with some customers & 'the best way' when unforeseen issues happen') Love them.

              Easy to install. Instructions for the beginner and very forgiving when adjusting is needed.

              Made for fast and easily install of light switches, just wish they would also make a commercial grade version of these soon. We needed to replace a bunch of failing and yellowed toggle style light switches, and it took longer to remove the old switches and trim the wires, than to install the new switches. I like that they don't have any exposed electrical terminals like the old style, and appear to have a death grip on the wires so they can't work their way out over time.

              Decora Edge 15 Amp Single Pole Switch – Modernized by Leviton
              Simplest and safest (for the worker to install) switch ever. Notably absent are tedious fishhook bends, handling a screwdriver throughout the process, seeking a firmer workbench than one’s palm. The new switch comes with novice level instructions that address its features including Lever Wiring (WAGO style clamping), identifying one’s conductors, preparing conductors, wallplate preparation, installing in single- and multi-gang boxes. Still present are silent and sure snap action, built-in strip gauge, grounding straps and captive screws. New are big plastic mounting tabs that make mounting straight and which are wide enough to align multiple devices (with an indexing tab that assured the cover plate slides right over), color-coded wire clamping levers (with audible flush closure), and test probe ports. This device will work with stranded wire. There are no conductive surfaces along either left or right edge. This switch is available in a 3-way version where the traveler wire clamp is color coded red. One can trim (snap away) the mounting tabs to accommodate standard or oversized scratchplates. Not only is this a timesaver, but it is also considerably foolproof.

              Push-Click-Done Quick-Connect switch is a winner!
              I was wondering when someone would come out with a Wagu-type product that was better than the stab-backs, although I've never had a problem with the stab-backs that so many electricians said were horrible. I did a remodel project and needed a couple of switches, one a 3-way and the other just a regular one. I stumbled upon these and ordered them out just to see if they really were that easy. Now I know what you're thinking...D, it's only a light switch (or outlet). True, but it literally took less than 30 seconds to get each of them wired up. It took longer to screw them into the box than it did to wire them. If you're just wanting to swap out regular switches for new ones like these, I highly recommend using them. I love the color-codedness of them. No way can you mess up now in cross-wiring. I'll definitely be using these in all of my remodel jobs. If you like the Wagu's you love these switches!

              Works just like a regular wall switch
              Simple installation, open levers, strip wires, insert wires, close levers, push switch into box. I am relieved that this switch can accept 12 or 14 gauge wire. Many like this cannot. I used a regular size cover plate so I had to break off the two plastic end pieces. ----- Nothing unusual here, just a normal wall switch. 15 amps limit on current. There are some that can handle 20 amps, not this one.

              Hands down the best switch design I have seen!
              Every once in a while a product comes along that so totally improves a design, that it becomes the go to product from now on. I'm here to tell you that this is one on those products. As someone who regularly replaces outlets and switches in homes, this new design has really been a time saver, and all around made my job simpler. The switch has side levers that when the wire is inserted into the back, you simply push the levers closed and it locks the wire in place. In turn, if you need to remove the switch, simply open the levers and the wire is released, for easy and quick replacement. This is a really big improvement over older designs out there. On the side of the switch is a simple gage to show you how much wire to strip before inserting. The all plastic casing makes things safer when installing in the outlet box, as wires will not short out with each other. The tabs on top and bottom are designed for larger cover plates, but are simple to remove for standard ones. Oh, and the notch in the side of the casing makes for perfect alignment in multi gang boxes. The included instructions were clear and simple to read and understand, and really any diy'er or homeowner that can do simple repairs can easily install this switch! They really thought of everything with this one, and it will be the only switches and outlets I buy from now on!
