@livin.lost: 3 way switches can be confusing because they don’t work like a normal on/off switch. I break down exactly how they work and why your switch might only be working in one direction. #DIY #tools #electrical #trades #homeowner

With traveler wire, does one make sure they get connected to same terminal with both switches?

Most 3-way issues come down to ONE thing: the common wire is on the wrong terminal Power In | | (COMMON) v [ Switch 1 ] | | | | <- travelers (14/3 cable) | | [ Switch 2 ] | | (COMMON) v Light | Neutral (returns straight back)

Pls ground the switches even in demonstrations so people know it’s important. Too many switches still aren’t grounded today.

It does both. It turns the power on and off, and it changes direction.
