Three-Way Switch
Three-way switches come in twos so you can control a light from two locations. Their most common location is at the top and bottom of a staircase or at opposite ends of a large room with more than one entrance. Three-way switches come with three terminal screws: Two are the traveler screw terminals; the third, which is darker in color, is the common screw terminal. The traveler terminals connect one switch to the other. The cable that runs between the switches has two hot wires: one neutral, and one ground.
