Eaton CS120LA Toggle Switch - Commercial Grade cULus
Part Number: CS120LA
Quick Summary
The Eaton CS120LA Toggle Switch is a commercial-grade control device designed for reliable operation in lighting and motor circuits across offices, retail, and hospitality environments. Engineers often struggle with compact switches that fit flush in standard wall plates, accept #14-10 AWG conductors, and withstand frequent cycling in busy installations. This model is cULus Listed and NOM, with Federal Specification Classification 6241 05, helping ensure code compliance and safety. Its 1.3 in depth, side-wire terminals, brass terminal enclosure, and 120/277V rating support fast, code-compliant wiring and interchangeability with existing commercial-grade switches. With PVC construction and a single-pole, load-capable design, it delivers long service life, reduces maintenance, and lowers total cost of ownership for electrical protection and circuit-control infrastructure.

20A at 120/277V provides capability for typical commercial lighting and small motor loads, improving uptime and reducing the need for multiple devices on a single circuit. This translates to faster commissioning and more predictable performance in busy facilities. Side-wire terminals using #14-10 AWG conductors simplify wiring, reduce installer error, and cut labor time during panel hookups and retrofit projects. Flush mounting delivers a clean wall silhouette, supporting compliant aesthetics and safer installations in commercial spaces. Brass terminal enclosure offers durable, corrosion-resistant connections, boosting reliability in environments with temperature and humidity variations. Load-type compatibility covers INC, MLV, LED, ELV, CFL, FLR, Halogen, Fan, and Motor Control, enabling a single switch to serve mixed lighting and small-motor applications. Certifications such as cULus Listed and NOM, along with Federal Specification 6241 05, streamline procurement and regulatory reviews. PVC construction keeps weight manageable without compromising durability, supporting long service life and reduced maintenance.

FAQs
The CS120LA uses side-wire terminals rated for #14-10 AWG conductors and flush mounting to fit standard wall boxes. Begin by turning off power, remove the plate, and prepare the conductors. Connect wires to the brass terminal enclosure using the provided screws, mount flush, and reattach the faceplate. The result is a code-compliant, durable switch with straightforward field wiring and reliable contact performance under repeated cycling.
CS120LA is rated for 20A at 120/277V and supports a broad range of loads, including incandescent, LED, CFL, fluorescent, halogen, as well as motor-control applications (MLV/ELV) and fans. This versatility enables a single switch to cover mixed lighting and small-motor circuits, reducing inventory complexity while maintaining predictable, safe operation.
Yes. The CS120LA is cULus Listed and NOM certified, with Federal Specification Classification 6241 05. This combination ensures compliance with relevant safety and performance requirements for commercial installations, providing procurement peace of mind and facilitating regulator reviews in regulated environments.
CS120LA features flush mounting and side-wire terminations for #14-10 AWG conductors, plus a brass terminal enclosure for secure connections. These options are designed for quick installation, compatibility with standard wall plates, and straightforward retrofit or new-build projects in commercial settings.
The device's PVC body and brass terminals contribute to durable, corrosion-resistant performance in busy facilities, reducing maintenance intervals. Its universal load compatibility minimizes replacement costs and stock variety, while a reliable 20A, 120/277V design supports long service life and lower total-cost-of-ownership in electrical protection and circuit-control infrastructure.
