Hello All,

I want to install 3 lights and 2 three way switches in a spot where I currently have 1 light and 1 switch. The incoming power is at the light. I looked for a diagram with three way switch and 3 lights but i could not find one. So I modified a diagram I found. Would this work they way I have it in the diagram or would there be a better way?
:surprise:

Thank you

Yes that will work. Basically one common screw goes to your light, the other common screw to the load. Thats exactly what the pictures describes.

It may work, but it doesn't have the neutral present at the switch locations, as required by current NEC code.

Yea it would pass in Ontario, Canada. Not sure about US code. US needs a neutral at every switch?

Canada or US the black and white between the switch and light need to be reversed at the light. The switched power needs to come back to the light on the black not the white. You can't have the confusion of two whites connecting to the fixture.
