This is exactly what I did,I mounted a light & 2 3 ways to some plywood, with a cord to an outlet just like a school project,cause I just got sick of being perplexed by this set up,no more visualization funks after that.Your a good communicator, a pleasure to learn from.

That is what we call a two-way switch.

I disagree - by calling them commons is what confused us by other sites. this is because we are laymen. to use the term "common" intimates an electrician's understanding of this system. tim, what your video shows, and how you explained everything, is the only way we could figure our system out.

Is it even legal to do your own work in the US? Certainly isnt in Australia

i installed 3-way occupancy sensor switches in my stairway and they don't work.
they turn on when they want, and stay on. some times they shut off, sometimes they stay on for hours and hours. the first switch in the line does not work, but the second switch works. but the lights stay on. can you please help?

no ground connections made according to this video. "ground and white wires are pass throughs" is all that is mentioned. is the ground made at the light fixture then?
