Faster, Safer, Easier: Leviton’s Lever Edge™ Wiring Solutions
Leviton’s industry-leading solutions for outlets, switches, bring “one and done” ease to the process of terminating wires.
On today’s increasingly competitive jobs, electrical contractors are under pressure to produce -- and there’s no better way for distributors to support them than by promoting their use of Lever Edge, Leviton’s breakthrough line of wiring devices for outlets and switches. With their cutting-edge design and labor-saving features, Lever Edge devices make quick work out of terminating wires and ensure faster, safer, and easier installations every time:
- To make installations faster, Lever Edge’s unique lever termination platform ensures quick, easy, and accurate terminations on the job. Devices additionally support multiple gauges of wire for an all-in-one solution, while Lever Edge’s larger, contractor-friendly plastic straps with alignment tools make installations in multiple gang applications speedier. And because Lever Edge devices have no torque, there’s no torque gun -- or associated annual verification and recalibration activities – required.
- To make installations safer, all of the wires within Lever Edge devices are terminated internally with no metal parts exposed (e.g. no ground screws touching hot wires, etc.), eliminating the risk of shock hazards or the need for electrical tape.
- To make installations easier, Leviton’s patented color-coded levers make accurate installations a breeze, especially in low-light situations, and the resounding click the levers make after wires are pushed in provides positive confirmation of their closure and avoids the need for “guessing.” These features help contractors feel confident that they’ve completed the installation correctly while also making it easy to train new or less experienced contractors.
“Available since 2023, Lever Edge solutions represent innovation at its finest and their thoughtfully designed features address contractors’ biggest pain points like no other competing products on the market,” said William Randall, Senior Director of Product Management at Leviton.
“But while contractor demand for Lever Edge has been incredibly strong, many contractors are sourcing these products through retail channels and distributors are losing those sales,” Randall shared. “Based on the product line’s ease of use, safety-focused design, and cost-saving features, distributors should seize the opportunity to aggressively promote Lever Edge because their contractors will pull it through.”
Through Leviton’s family of Lever Edge solutions, Randall concluded, “distributors can help their contractors become more competitive, win more jobs, and reduce costs – all of which will ultimately help strengthen their customer partnerships.”
