Hello
I have 2 basement stair lights that are controlled by 2 - 3 way switches. Light 1 light is inaccessible (drywall ceiling). Light 2 is in the basement and fully accessible. I can see the 14/2 wire coming from Light 1 down the wall to Light 2. There is also another 14/2 wire extending from Light 2 and going up into the upper floors. I suspect to power the upstairs hallway.
Question: I would like to add 2 more lights in the basement to the circuit after Light 2. I do not understand how the upstairs hall lights are drawing power from Light 2 and how do I ensure continuation of power?
