3-Way Switch Wiring Diagram: How to Wire Two Switches to One Light #1438771 (License: Personal Use)

This schematic illustrates a standard 3-way switch configuration where a single light is controlled from two locations. Power enters at the first switch box (feed), travels via black (hot), white (neutral-marked as such), and red (traveler) wires through wirenut splices to the second switch and then to the light. The diagram explicitly identifies the white wire as neutral per code, and shows correct terminal connections on both switches.

Used in DIY electrical guides, home renovation blogs, and electrical training materials to help users safely install multi-location lighting control. Matches user intent for visual wiring instructions, troubleshooting, or code-compliant installations.
