Wiring multiple lights to one switch10/30/2022 ![]() Here we have multiple lights controlled by 3 way switches. WIRING MULTIPLE LIGHTS TO ONE SWITCH HOW TOTags: 2 lights, 3 way switch, how to wire a light switch, Three way switch, travelers, two lightsģ way light switch with power feed via the switch (two lights) The traveler wires from the two switches pass straight through the fixtures via cable C3. The neutral is spliced to the white wire feeding the first fixture, via cable C1,where it is spliced to the neutral of both lights. The hot source is connected to the common terminal of SW1. Two, 2-wire cables (C3 and C4) run between the fixtures, and a 3-wire cable (C2) runs from the second fixture (F2) to the second 3 way switch (SW2). The power source is via the switch box SB1 and a 3-wire cable (C1) runs from there to the first fixture (F1). Shown below are two fixtures between 3 way switches. Two lights between 3 way switches (power via a switch) Tags: 2 lights, 3 way switch, power feed via light, Three way switch, travelers, two lights The hot to the lights comes from the common terminal of SW2 via cable C2 where it is spliced to the hot of of LT1 via cable C4. The travelers from the switches, via C1 and C2, are spliced through the fixtures,and joined by cable C3. The hot from the power source is spliced through to the common terminal of the switch (SW1) via cable C1. The neutral connects to the light (LT1) and is spliced through to LT2 via the cable C4. ![]() The power for the circuit joins the light fixture F1 via the cable C5. Two lights between 3 way switches (power via a light) Tags: 2 lights, 2 way switch, how to wire a 2 way switch, how to wire a light switch, Power feed via switch, two lights, two way, two way light switch, two way switch ![]() The power source enters the switch box (SB1) where the neutral is spliced through to the light fixture (F1) where it is spliced to the light (LT1) and, via cable C3, to the second light LT2. The hot from the power source connects to the 2-way switch (SW1) where it can be switched to the hot terminal of the light LT1 and spliced through to LT2 via the cable C3. 2 way light switch with power feed via switch (two lights) ![]()
