    Multi-Gang Intermediate Switches

    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...
