Copper-free aluminum construction delivers corrosion resistance and lighter weight, improving handling during installation and reducing enclosure wear. This translates to lower maintenance costs and safer mounting practices in panel assembly. The 15A at 277Vac rating supports common control loads without oversized components, enabling compact wiring schemes and cost-effective panel design. Surface mounting simplifies retrofits and new installations in tight enclosures where rear access is limited. Two single-pole switches in one compact package provide independent control for two circuits, reducing wiring complexity and inventory needs. The Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations area classification ensures safe operation in typical industrial environments, aligning with standard safety practices and broad compatibility with Pauluhn interior toggle switch applications.

FAQs
Follow the provided installation sheets (IF LBL 1557) and the Pauluhn catalog page. Use the surface-mount mounting style with standard hardware, verify enclosure rating, and route conductors to the two single-pole switches. Ensure a snug fit to maintain vibration resistance and proper actuation. Always observe safety procedures for low-voltage switching within ordinary locations.
The 2717A is rated for 15A and 277Vac, with two single-pole switches in a surface-mount package. The physical footprint is 2.75 in in depth, 4.5 in tall, and 1.75 in wide, with a weight of 0.8 lb. The unit uses copper-free aluminum construction and is intended for ordinary/non-hazardous locations.
Yes. It provides two independent single-pole switches in a single housing, suitable for controlling two circuits in control panels. The 15A/277Vac rating supports typical low-to-moderate load applications, and the ordinary/non-hazardous area classification ensures safe operation in common industrial environments.
The primary certification/classification listed is Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations, indicating suitability for standard industrial environments without hazardous location requirements. This helps with design approvals, safety compliance, and procurement in typical plant settings.
Leverage the included installation instructions (LBL1557) and the Eaton Pauluhn datasheet for wiring diagrams and mounting guidance. The copper-free aluminum construction reduces corrosion-related maintenance, while the surface-mount design simplifies installation in tight panels and minimizes field adjustments, delivering faster commissioning and lower lifecycle costs.
