Abstract: An electrical switching device for controlling lighting or other electrical loads from multiple locations. Device toggle element indicates to a user whether or not the load is energized. A raised “ON” position indicates an energized load while lowered “OFF” position indicates the load is not energized. Toggle element position is changeable manually by the user or programmatically by an actuator mechanism. A mode of communication exists among devices so that when one device's toggle element position is changed manually, this change is communicated to other devices on the same circuit and these other devices activate their actuator in order to change the position of their toggle elements in synchronization. One or more loads are connected to devices and are energized when the respective device's toggle element is in the raised “ON” position and de-energized when the device's toggle element is in the lowered “OFF” position.
