Abstract: An illuminated electrical load control is provided for controlling electrical power to a light-emitting diode (LED) lighting load. The load control includes a wall-box mounted housing, and an electrical switch assembly disposed at least partially within the housing. The switch assembly includes an actuator coupled to transition the switch assembly between an ON state, where AC current flows to the LED lighting load, and an OFF state, where current is interrupted from flowing to the LED lighting load. Further, the load control includes an illumination assembly with an indicator light to illuminate, at least in part, the load control when the switch assembly is in OFF state, and a current-limiting circuit connected across terminals of the switch assembly, and configured to limit leakage current through to the LED lighting load to below an activation current of the LED lighting load when the switch assembly is in the OFF state.

Abstract: A wiring device terminal may include a contact having an aperture formed therethrough for receiving a fastener. One or more conductors may be engaged in the terminal directly between the fastener and the contact without requiring a pressure plate. When the fastener is tightened, the one or more conductors may be securingly held between the contact and the fastener.

Abstract: An electrical device controller is provided for controlling power to a load. The controller includes a housing having an open face and a plate having a unitary aperture secured to the housing and disposed over the open face. The controller further includes an electrical power controller component positioned within the housing for coupling to a power source and a load, a first actuator coupled to the electrical component, and an adjacent second actuator coupled to the electrical component. The first actuator has a movable user operable portion that is user accessible via the unitary aperture for controlling power ON/OFF to the load. The second actuator has a movable user operable portion that is user accessible via the unitary aperture for adjusting magnitude of power delivered to the load. The movement and position of the respective user operable portions of the first and second actuators are mutually independent.

Abstract: One embodiment of the invention relates to an electrical device having illumination comprising a housing and at least one light pipe extending along a longitudinal axis, inside the housing. There is at least one light disposed in the housing and being positioned adjacent to the light pipe. The light has a radiation pattern having a corresponding peak radiation pattern direction which extends along the longitudinal axis of the light pipe.
