Hi
I need to tap into the power at the first 3-way switch. I have a power supply at the switch but I donot have a neutral wire. See attachment. If I was to replace the cable from light to switch with a 3 wire cable and connect the wire as follows:
light white to power white and incoming white from the single pole switch
power black to 3-way switch red (instead of the white) and single pole switch
light black to the 3-way switch (same)
This is my first electrical project and would appreciate any advice. Thanks in advance for your help.
Thanks
