Complex intermediate switch question Discussion ThreadComplex intermediate switch question Electrical Advice
I want three switches to control a light. All three switches are intermediate and so have four avaliable terminals. Switch 1, switch 2 and switch 3.
Switch 1 has the incoming live.
Switch 2 has the load (and is the true intermediate)
Switch 3 is a standard switch.
Can anyone advise on whether the below would work?
| Switch | Terminal | Wire Color |
|--------|----------|------------|
| Switch 1 |
L1 | Brown (Common) |
| | L2 | Grey |
| | L3 | Black |
| | L4 | Brown (Live Feed) |
| Switch 2
| L1 | Brown (Common) |
| | L2 | Grey 1 |
| | L3 | Black 1 |
| | L4 | Brown (Load) |
| | L2 | Grey 2 |
| | L3 | Black 2 |
| Switch 3
| L1 | Brown (Common) |
| | L2 | Grey |
| | L3 | Black |
| | L4 | Not Used |
