Yes. You have 2 wires (plus ground) coming from the previous switch in the circuit and 2 wires (plus ground) going to the next switch in the circuit. If you have a neutral, or if you have a switch leg, which would be the conductor from the last switch in the circuit to the equipment being powered, you will need 3 or 4 conductors (plus ground).

How do you wire 4 lights with 2 switches?
Wire the two 3 way switches using 3 wire cable (red, black, white and bare). Then connect the first light to the others using two wire cable (black, white and bare) kind of like a daisy chain. The power goes to the first 3 way switch, then switch one goes to switch 2 using the 3 wire cable (even though it has 4 wires in there), then the second switch goes to one of the lights. Hope that helps.
Is there a danger if you mix up ground wire and common wire when wiring a light switch?
Power out of a switch is not negative. It is still the "hot" conductor. The ground wire in a switch junction box in home wiring is the bare wire. It is nearly impossible to mix these two wires up. Most likely if the "hot" supply comes into the switch box the neutral wire will be with it. Just wire nut the two white wires together, incoming and outgoing. The two black wires will be connected to the switch to operate the light fixture.
How do you connect two way electrical switch?
The two way switches work in pairs. We find most of them in our houses where the light bulb can be operated by two switches each at the far end to the other. Each switch consists of three terminals two of which are connected. When one switch is open and the other is closed then the bulb glows and viceversa
When installing lights with 2-way and intermediate switching control the intermediate switch must be connected to the?
to wire a lamp to be controlled from three places you need two three way switches and one four way switch. the two traveller wires that would normally run between the two three way switches must be connected to the terminals of the four way switch
How do you wire a 3-way dimmer and switch it in 3 locations?
One 3-way dimmer switch, one regular 3-way switch and one 4-way switch. The 4-way is wired between the two pairs of travelers from the other two switches. The common on the dimmer is tied to either the light or to the branch hot and the common on the other 3-way is tied to whichever is left (hot or the light).
How many pararllel side does a parallelogram have?
Two pairs so four sides.Two pairs so four sides.Two pairs so four sides.Two pairs so four sides.
How many pairs of wings do flys have?
Well It has two pairs of wings which means there are four of them so to be honest with you i'd say two pairs but four wings
Deference between cat5 and cat6?
The most obvious difference is their transfer capability. CAT5 has four pairs of twisted copper wire and supports up to 100m of Fast Ethernet (100Mbps) transfers. Although CAT5 has four twisted pairs, it only makes use of two pairs. CAT6 also has four pairs of twisted copper wire which supports Gigabit Ethernet (1000 Mbps) of up to 100m. Unlike CAT5, CAT6 takes advantage of all four pairs. CAT6 has a 2x transfer rate compared to CAT5 but due to the higher price tag of CAT6.
Do a rhombus have two pairs of congruent sides?
Yes, but in fact, all four (two pairs of two) are congruent.
How do you wire a two-way switch?
read the instructions in the switch packet
Does a bee have 2 wings?
4. 2 pairs of 2. Wasps have two pairs of wings, four in all.
How many pairs of wings do centipedes have?
They have two pairs of wings. So four wings in total. two on each side.

What is a four-sided polygon with two pairs of parallel sides and two pairs of congruent sides?
any parallelogram because parallelograms are polygons with four sides.

A trapezoid
Number of wire pairs in a Category 5 cable?
There are four wire pairs. White/Blue - Blue, White/Orange - Orange, White/Green - Green, and White/Brown - Brown. Only two pairs are used in Cat5 networks.
