Beautiful 3 Switches Control One Light

Wiring a four way circuit involves threading traveler wires carrying current among the switches ending at the light fixture.

3 switches control one light. One of the switches controls the lightbulb in the closet. I have 3 switches that control one light in my living room. Thanks for any help.

You can flip the switches however you want but once you open the door you can no. I know this can be done but i don t have a clue how to connect the switches to the fixture. When the 4 way switch in in on position thexxxxxswitches control the light perfectly.

The configuration is called four way because the middle switch in the circuit has four connecting terminals rather than the usual three found on most switches. Outside of the closet there are three light switches. Note that you may control even more light bulbs by adding more intermediate switches in the middle of the circuit.

One switch will be located outside on the porch and the other switch will be on the inside wall next to the door. When the 4 way switch at main entrance is in off position the 2 3 way switches can not cut the light on or off. In a four way switch configuration three switches control a single fixture whether it is a light receptacle or other appliance.

This circuit uses an existing receptacle to tap into the branch circuit. First let s take a look at the back of several different light switches. Your help will.

Below is a given wiring diagram which shows how to control a light point from six different places by using two 2 way switches and four intermediates switches. Probably the easiest solution to this problem is not dealing with the switches at all but simply installing a motion sensor light at the other end of the hallway so that there would be light in the hallway whenever anyone walks down the hallway from either end. A simple ordinary on off light switch as in the first photo has two screws on it.
