2 Way Switch Connection Diagram. Two way switches and three way switches operate the same way and have the same connection points they just have different names in the uk which are common l1 and l2. You will see that there is a hot wire that is then spliced through a switch and that then goes to the hot terminal of the light.
2 way switch connection. Consider the 2 way switch wiring diagram above that is used to control the bulb in the stairwell. The electricity flows from the hot wire black through the 2 way switch shown in off position and then to the light and returns through the neutral wire white.
With these diagrams below it will take the guess work out of wiring.
With these diagrams below it will take the guess work out of wiring. As you can see in the schematic diagram of 2 way switch circuit below the common of both the switches are short circuited. Two way switch connection is nothing but a operating a electrical lighting circuit in two different places such as stair case ladder etc. This is the new method to make a 2 way switch connection and it is slightly different from the two wire control method.
