3 Way Switch Light Wiring Schematic. Two very old three-way switches are depicted in the photo above. Three-wire cable runs between the switches and 2-wire cable runs to the light.
Three way switching schematic wiring diagram. 3-way switch wiring diagrams for multiple lights. Conventional 3-Way Switch Wiring Configuration.
Now discussing 3-way light switch wiring diagram as also discussed above the color codes of the wires as having three insulated conductors as black as hot red as switch wire or called traveler and white as common wire as also shown when light is connected to both black and white wires.
3-way switches have three terminals one common usually black color and one pair of travelers usually brass color. The electricity source and light fixture are connected to the same switch. In this diagram power enters the fixture box. Conventional 3-Way Switch Wiring Configuration.
