Different types of switches are used in our electrical system to control the appliances. A smart switch is one of them that helps switch to control the remote or through preset times. For controlling lights to turn on or off, different apps on phones or tablets are used. These apps also have options to turn…
The dimmer switch is an easy-to-use switch that controls the brightness of lights. It either provides easy control of the lighting process and saves us money on bills or is a common part of our home wiring system. Here, we will discuss the wiring process of the dimmer switch and learn how it is practically…
Dimmer switches are part of a light control system that uses low energy. Dimmers operate by restricting the voltage used by lights as a load. Dimmer switches work well with incandescent bulbs because they provide a larger dimming option. Dimmer switches are easy to connect to circuits. Here, we will discuss the detailed features and…
The 4-way switch is used to control 3 or more lights at different points. It is also used to control fans and ventilation systems at various points, such as in a larger room. The 4-way switches connect with 2 three-way switches for controlling a single light or many lights at 3 or more points. The…
The 4-way Decora switch comes with 2 pairs of traveler terminals, but the location of the terminal is different from that of 4-way toggle switches. The 4-way switch is used for controlling lights at 3 or more different points. It is also used for controlling fans and ventilation systems at various points, such as in a…
Casters are small size wheels that connect to the lower part of chair legs for easy movement on floors at different points. This feature is best for small and low-weight chairs like low-weight chairs that are used for conference seating. Free-wheeling casters are used for chair casters. The wheels move also high weight is provided to…
The 4-Way Toggle Switch comes with 2 pairs of traveler terminals, which are located differently from the 3-way Decora switch. The 4-way switch is used for controlling one light from three or more different points. The 4-way switches are used in larger rooms and halls. Here we will learn about 4-way toggle switches, working, and…
The 3-way switch is commonly used in our homes, buildings, and hallways to control the light at 2 different points. It also has features for converting 3-way to a single pole switch.

The 3-way switch comes with a 3-way switch combination in a single casing. Two common terminals are connected and have removable metallic tabs. These pins are connected with line voltage and are black or bronze based on the manufacturer. The tab is removed to make the separation between tabs. Let’s get started with 3-way duplex…
The 3-way switch wiring variations help to use 3-way switches in different configurations based on applications and circuit demand. That is helpful to deliver power to load through different switches connected in circuits. These writing types are used at home and in other building circuits for feeding loads. In simple or conventional 3-way wiring, voltage…
