I've been an electrician for about 8 years now and this is one of the first videos I've seen where the person actually knows what they are talking about and explain properly and whats acceptable by code

I've literally watched HUNDREDS of diy videos about electrical installs, you sir are by far the most educated instructor I've ever had the pleasure to learn from. Thank you and God Bless! Are you a professor or teacher by chance, id sit in your class all day long! Thank you again sir.

I'm not an electrician just a diy homeowner and understood everything this guy was talking about. If I ever was a journeyman I would like to be taught by someone like you sir. Thank you.

At 73 years old I have never had a three way demo this way - I am so thankful. I have built 3 houses in my life and when the wife started with the 3way switches I was lost - pulse I had dropped more than my share & I had to replaced them. I no longer have fear and you have saved my manhood!
Now I still have one that's not working right but not for long - Here is an electronic hug from me )oo( Thank you for all your efforts! Well done!

I have many years experience. Going on 7 years. I never understood fully how it works because we never had great instructors. We were always just told to “do it this way.” I’ll say one thing sir. You explained it very impeccable. The explanation to each wire needed. If only we had people like you to explain with no sponsors and cared for the money. (I learned properly 40 hrs a weeks, about a year into working as a apprentice)

Been doing electrical for 20 years and it literally took me years to understand 3 way switches and travelers. This is absolutely the best way I've ever seen or heard it explained.

I’m an apprentice and my next class gonna be essentially on 3-way & 4-way switching. By watching this tutorial, I assume that I’m well prepared to demonstrate how to wire a 3-way switch. Thank you for mentoring a large group of new electricians

I’m not an electrician but I am a DIY handyman and have done many electrical jobs for my own house and friends, family and Sidejob clients. I must say this was by far the best explanation on how to wire a 3 way switch I ever seen! Everything was explained step by step and why you do those steps and demonstrated in uncomplicated manner. Thank you sir for doing that excellent how to video👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

I hvave known how to wire a three way for decades, but refreshers are never wasted ..this is likely the best tutorial ever ...without a doubt.

This is the Scotty Kilmer of building electrical!

[dgmoranpc]

I've seen 100s of videos talking about 3 way switches and never understood them 100% this man has made SO EASY for me to understand it.... Thank you

[ipolar]

I like how you keep it short and simple other channels have like an hour long video just for a three-way

[sierrafaulkner]

"this video hasn't been sponsored by anybody, so I just used what I thought were the best tools" 🤣
This man is doing youtube right!

[PotatosPotatoes]

I wish you were my teacher for literally everything in life. So well-explained and well-prepared!

[Scratchingforcash]

This is probably the best most self explanatory video on this I’ve ever seen. Thank you

[TheLongjohntim]

I was so proud of myself years ago. I drew out a diagram of a three way switch and figured out it works. This may not seem like much to some but for me it was awesome. I just wished my dad had lived long enough for me to have shown him how they work.

[JasonSmith-etgc]

As an apprentice, I have never had a journeyman explain this to me. Most times, I have to resort to YouTube videos, to get grasp of how and why things are done. Thank you so much for your great videos!🙏🏼

[MrKaaz]

Phenomenal video. I'm about to add a second switch exactly like this to control an existing light from two separate rooms and this video has sured up my confidence in getting the job done correctly. Thanks!

[arubisx]

100% the BEST 3 way switch video I've seen. Thanks!

[yonniesimon]

As an Electricians apprentice I greatly appreciate this content! You are very thorough in your explanation of everything, making sure to use the correct terminology and explain things in detail. Thank you for making this video!
