In this video we look again at a lighting circuit using the 2 plate method and I explain the connections within the switches for 2 way and intermediate switching (3 way switching). The 2 plate method takes the feed (supply) to the switch and is often used in installation that have lots of downlights fitted (LED lights). I show and explain the connection at all switches making it easier for learners to connect up both the 2 way switches and the intermediate switch. The 2 plate method is a very common wiring method used on site so it’s important apprentice electricians and trainees understand it.
Learner question when can a Wago connector be classed as maintenance free..?

Studied Level 3 at college. Lecturers didn't help you to fully understand. Found GSH 2 months into my apprenticeship and understood everything I couldn't before from the easy to learn videos And 5 years later thanks to all Gaz's I'm qualified level 3 electrician with 2391 and about to take course in Electric Vehicle Charging Without GSH I wouldn't have got through my college so thank you Gaz for all your helpful videos👍🏼💪🏻

When I was an apprentice we was always taught the red was common. When the cable colours changed we automatically used brown for common. I still find these days in my area 50% of electricians use brown and 50% black for common. The point I’m making is when replacing a switch always check to make sure what colour has been used for common

Most switches from that era wasn’t the 2 plate method

Thanks for the video - well explained - if anyone doesn't understand how these two way/intermediate switches work after watching this series of videos they should perhaps find another career path!!

Thanks for the video they have all been really useful in getting my head around lighting/switching. Would you consider doing one that covers an extractor fan connected to ceiling rose with isolation switch. I really enjoy watching and learning. Thanks again!

Hi Gaz, another helpful video. Please can you confirm why they’re called 2 plate and 3 plate?
@Daniells1982
@Daniells1982 2 года назад
Now there's a recommendation in the regs to have a neutral at every switch position, I thought the wiring through the switch method would be the method of choice for 2 way and intermediate switching now but doesn't seem to be the case. The 2 plate method is still being used on new builds.

You should have a cable stripper job for someone, you will damage it without cable stripper
