Here's how it works:
* Power Source: The power source (usually a hot wire from the breaker box) is connected to the light fixture.
* Traveler Wires: There are two "traveler" wires that run between the switches. One traveler carries power to the first switch, and the other traveler carries the return power from the last switch to the light fixture.
* Switch Connections: Each switch connects to the traveler wires and a common wire (which might be the neutral wire). This allows the switches to control the flow of power to the light fixture.
Important Note: The specific wiring setup for 2-way and intermediate switches can vary depending on the type of switches and the wiring configuration of the house. Always consult the manufacturer's instructions for the specific switches you are using and double-check your work before energizing the circuit.
