Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a rocker switch and a toggle switch?
What is the difference between a rocker switch and a toggle switch?
A toggle switch features a small protruding lever that clicks up and down. A rocker switch (or decora switch) is a flat, broad paddle that rocks between positions. Rocker switches, like the Legrand switch Radiant series, are considered more modern and easier to operate.
When do I need a 3 way switch?
When do I need a 3 way switch?
You need a 3 way switch when you want to control one light fixture from two different wall locations, such as at the top and bottom of a staircase.
Can I replace a standard light switch with a smart switch?
Can I replace a standard light switch with a smart switch?
Yes, but most smart switch models require a neutral wire for power. Always check your home's wiring before purchasing a WiFi or Bluetooth-integrated switch.
What is a Decora switch?
What is a Decora switch?
"Decora" is a common term for any rocker switch that fits into a large rectangular wall plate opening, matching the profile of the Legrand switch Radiant collection.
How do I know if I have a single pole or 3-way circuit?
How do I know if I have a single pole or 3-way circuit?
If only one switch controls the light, it is a single pole. If two switches control the same light, both switches are 3-way.
