Leviton’s Decora Edge wiring devices will revolutionize how DIYers and electricians install the most common residential switches and outlets. Compared to conventional wiring devices where a screw terminal is present, Decora® Edge introduces an innovative color-coded lever termination feature. This design enables users to simply push the stripped end of a wire into the correct color-coded terminal, ensure positive connections are made with an audible click and complete the connection with confidence. The device has no exposed metal parts, thereby eliminating the need for electrical tape and ensuring that DIYers with little to no electrical wiring experience can install the product safely. For professional contractors and electricians, the easy-to-install devices dramatically decrease installation time which enables greater productivity on the job site.
Decora Edge™ Wiring Devices represent the latest residential electrical device innovation by Leviton that is ideal for new home construction and MDU projects as well as home improvement projects. The device is designed to enable electricians or DIYers to complete installation in three simple steps.
Users can simply push a stripped 14-gauge or 12-gauge electrical wire into the correct color coded terminal. The hot, neutral and ground wires are color-coded, making it easy for users to identify the correct terminal for wiring.
A simple integral lever clamps the wires into place without the use of screws that are in traditional devices.
It makes an audible “click” giving the user confidence that a positive wiring connection was made.
Decora Edge is the only electrical wiring device on the market with a quick termination ground wire and a strap that is compatible with any sized wallplate. The Decora Edge line consists of Single Pole and 3-Way Switches and a 15 amp Tamper-Resistant Duplex Receptacle.
Decora Edge went through rigorous third-party testing and is certified as meeting the standards of Nationally Recognized Test labs, such as Underwriters Laboratories. Decora Edge is compliant with the National Electric Code (NEC) and UL certified.
Leviton has been at the forefront of innovative product development since 1906, beginning with the simple pull chain light switch and most recently the line of Decora Smart products that have made the company a critical component of smart homes today. The Decora product line features a wide range of options ranging from switches and outlets to dimmers, sensors and timers, to in-wall USB chargers and more.
Decora Edge continues this brand’s legacy of superior performance, innovative engineering and contemporary elegance which adds the perfect final addition to any room in the home. It also enables homeowners and DIYers to install outlets and switches safely and easily on their own, without the need of an electrician.
