Hypothetical Question regarding new requirement of neutral wire at switch.
If power is run to the light and then 3 conductors to the switch (2 for the switch leg and 1 for the neutral), what happens to the neutral at the switch? Is it just capped off in case it is needed and then connected to the neutral at the light?
Thanks.
Also, wouldn't this open the possibility of someone using the neutral as a hot to expand from the switch--something you wouldn't be able to do on a two conductor switch leg.
