3 Pole Light Switch. A) At the existing single pole light switch (the switch which is currently connected to the circuit breaker) remove this existing switch from the box. While they're not as prevalent in the home as single-pole or three-way switches.
Three-way light switches control a light from two locations, such as from both ends of a staircase or hallway. I assumed it was a single pole switch as it is a simple switch to turn on the bedroom light and there are no other controlling switches, but when I pulled the old switch out of the wall I found three black wires attached to it (two go directly into the switch and a third is screwed on the side). Three-way switches are always used in pairs and allow you to control a light or receptacle from two different locations.
Step-by-step instructions and troubleshooting guides included.
I accidentally purchased a couple of them and only need to control one light each.
When I went to turn on the power it tripped a breaker so I knew it was not right. Great switch for a great price. Three-way switches are always used in pairs and allow you to control a light or receptacle from two different locations.
