Two way intermediate switch

Notice that the wire connected to the COM terminals is looped straight through the intermediate . What we need is to utilise the two - way and intermediate switching available. Connect the Line wire of this cable to the supply cables Line wire. You will also need an intermediate switch to fit in between the other two switches, this can easily be identified as it . It should be fitted between the first and the last switches on the circuit.

If replacing an existing switch, note the location of the terminals and the colour and position of cable connections.

One way switch Two way switch Intermediate switch.

The diagrams here are all one gang, as there is one switch on each plate. The switches themselves are one way, two way and intermediate. Make sure you always use the same size wire in your circuit.


Hope it will helps in your home project. Student training aid for the connections required to wire two way and two way and intermediate switching. Video explains the connection required within two w. Dotted lines show alternative switch positions.


It's not known as three way switching because you can also add more switches for four way . Two - way switching – wire control. In building wiring, multiway switching is the interconnection of two or more electrical switches to control an electrical load from more than one location. The intermediate light switch is used where three or more switches control one light and used in conjunction with two two way light switches to achieve this. It is effectively two single gang intermediate switches on one face plate.


This was done in London using 2Volts. All you need for this Circuit are: The Main wires: Earth, Line and Neutral 2- Gang- Two way switches with Land LAn Intermediate Switch. All you basically do is Bring you mains to Switches 1 . Showing my wiring of an intermediate switch working for college.


Core cables (brown and blue) carries Live and Neutral to the wall switch and Switched Live . In fact any number of intermediate switches can be adde to add as many extra switching positions as required. A 3- Way Lighting System with . An application of above using .
