- The Process of Wiring a Home
- Methods to rewire home circuits.
- Photos including an actual set of house plans used to wire a new home.
- How to upgrade home wiring for older homes and make them safer.
- Example:
- A single switch turns on a light fixture from one wall switch.
- Important:
- All switches are not wired the same way. There are a few different ways to wire a light Switch.
- See:
- Wiring Diagrams for Switches will show you how to wire a light switch.
- Example:
- Two three way switches will turn on one or more light fixtures from two locations, such as a hall way or stairway.
- Important:
- Each pair of three way switches are wired differently, and there are different types of three way switches. The methods of wiring three way switches can be challenging.
- See:
- The Wiring Diagrams for Three Way Switches will show you how to wire a pair of 3way switches.
- Example:
- One or more 4Way switches are used with two 3Way Switches to turn on one or more light fixtures from more that two locations.
- Important:
- The method of wiring 4way switches with two 3way switches only requires a small modification to the switch circuit wiring.
- See:
- Wiring Diagrams for 4Way Switches will show the most common methods.
