    Multi-Gang Intermediate Switches

    I need to convert a landing light so that it can be switched from four locations (from the current two), so I'll need some intermediate switches. However, the new locations already have switches for other lights so that means that multi-gang switches will ideally be needed. I will definitely...

    Led Lamp still dim when 2 way + intermediate switches are off

    Landing light is not fully switching off when operating the 3 switches on the landing/hallway. A small voltage (less than 40v) is present between the switched live and neutral. After trying a new lamp it worked fine. Any ideas anyone??

    What was the fault??

    I have been fault finding today. The problem was fairly common. 3 switches (on different landings) switching one light, so 2 2way switches and an intermediate. The problem was that sometimes each of the switches worked and sometimes they didn't, so sometimes you have to go back upstairs and...

    Using 3x 2way instead of intermediate switch
