How Do You Wire A Light Switch That Goes To Three Lights?
Large rooms, like basements or garages, often require more than a single lamp to provide sufficient light. In some cases you may want each fixture controlled by its own switch. But other situations call for the fixtures to be controlled by a single light switch. Wiring multiple fixtures on a single circuit is not a difficult project, but you must make sure that the total wattage on the line does not exceed the circuit rating. Shut off the power to the circuit before cutting holes for the fixtures and the light switch. The light fixture holes should be at least six inches in diameter to allow you to hang the support bar for the light. Cut an access hole about two square inches in size where the wall meets the ceiling above the switch hole to thread the electrical cable. Remove the power source receptacle from its junction box and remove the baseboards between the source receptacle and the switch hole. Cut an access hole no larger than the height of the baseboard beneath the switch hole
