    Wiring a specialty switch
    I have a Leviton Decora Single Pole Switch with Pilot Light. I need to know how to wire it.
    Thank you

    Is the pilot light on when the switch is off?

    Are there just two terminals?

    Model # of switch?

    If it has 4 screws, you can wire so it is on with switch on, or on with switch off.
    Use a neutral and the switched side to light pilot when switch is on.
    Parallel pilot light with switch contacts to light when circuit is off, good for locating switch in the dark.
