Have a 3w switch and am trying to locate it's use. Did a quick check
of some lights, outlets/split outlets. Lots more trial & error to
cover.
Is this any indication of what configuration I am looking for?
- White on common (dark terminal and verified it's common with wires
off and a meter).
- Black (hot) on traveler - same physical side as common.
- Red on traveler (opposite side of common and other traveler).
Removing the wires from the switch and all open, black is hot, white &
red cold.
Thanks,
Al
If I understand your question you have a 3 way and you don't know what
it is for.
Leave it disconnected and find what is not working.
That's where I'm at with it now Terry. Thanks for responding.
