Ok I want to wire in a electronic wall timer that says it can be wired

one? * *In either case, if a person used the other 3 way switch to
turn on or off the light, would that affect the timer if it's already

A link to what you are talking about would help.


Is it just a timer in addition to the 3-way switches? (It can connect
across the travelers.) How is it powered? Does it have a battery? Does
it need a neutral?


If it replaces a 3-way switch how is the timer is powered? Does it need
a neutral?


Using the 3-way switches should not affect the timer.


Sorry Bud I was in a rush this morning to make an appointment. *Here
is the timer I had in mind....http://www.intermatic.com/Products/T...Electronic_Tim...


The wiring diagram only shows common wired into the hot line.
