2-Way Switch Wiring:

This diagram shows how to make a 2-way switch wiring. In this circuit, we use an SPST Switch ( Single Pole Single Throw ), two 2-way switches, and a light. First, we need to input a phase connection to the SPST switch, then connect two-way switches one and two, then connect the light with the two-way switch. then input a neutral connection to the light neutral terminal. Now this circuit is ready for use. If you want to know more about this circuit please check our youtube video below the post.

Components used to make the 2 Way Switch Wiring:

01. SPST Switch:

An SPST (Single Pole Single Throw) Switch is a Switch That only Has a Single Input and can Connect Only to one Output. This means it Only Has one Input Terminal and Only one Output Terminal. A Switch is a Mechanical or Controlling Device That Changes the Flow of Current Direction or Interrupts the Flow of Current Within a Circuit. Single Pole Single Throws (SPST) is Perfect for on-off switching. When the SPST is closed, the Circuit is Closed and the light from the lamp switches on. When The Single Pole Single Throw (SPST) is then opened, the light from the lamp goes out and the Circuit is off.

02. CFL Light:

CFL stands for Compact Fluorescent Lamp which is an improved version of tube lights of earlier days. Like tube lights, it is a vacuum glass tube with fluorescent powder coating which is not as long and straight as tube lights but curved/twisted compact, or small in size. Like a tube light, it has electrodes or filaments at both ends. But in this case, instead of a choke, there is an electronic circuit that drives the Compact Fluorescent Lamp. Because the red wave is less in the light of the Tubelight and Compact Fluorescent Lamp, the object looks a little pale or the correct color of the object does not appear.

03. 2 Way Switch:

Two Way Switch has three wire connection system. It is a type of switch that has three wire connections. And it really has no off or on. Both sides can be turned on or off depending on how you connect one to the other. The connection of the two-way switch is different. If you use it as a changer, then put the load in the middle one and two separate lines in the upper and lower ones. The two-way switch is a type of multiway switch. Multiway switches have more points and can be controlled in multiple ways simultaneously.
