How Do You Wire A Three-Way Dimmer Switch?
Three-way switches can commonly be found at either end of a hallway, near the doors of a very large room with multiple entryways or at the top and bottom of a set of stairs. They allow you the ability to turn the lights on or off from either location. But if you have a long hallway and you want to add a little ambiance to it or you just want to cut down on the harsh glare of the incandescent bulb, you can satisfy your need by replacing one of the conventional three-way switches with a three-way dimmer switch. Here is how. The first thing you will have to realize is that you can only replace ONE of the existing three-way switches with a three-way dimmer switch. If you try and replace them both, the circuit will not work. Therefore, choose to replace the three-way switch that you will probably use the most to control the lighting. Find the circuit breaker that is delivering the power to the lighting circuit and toggle it OFF. Flip each three-way switch to make sure the circuit is off. Re
