[ad#block]Question: How can I draw the complete lay out wiring diagram of two lamps connected in parallel controlled from five switch locations?

Thanks for your electrical question Solo. This can be easily done using the 4-way switch wiring diagram, placing three 4-way switches between two 3-way switches and wire two fixtures instead of one. Fully explained wiring instructions and wiring diagrams can be found here in the 4-way switch area here in this website.
Just click the 4-way wiring diagrams link below.
