Comments by "Rob Fraser" (@krashd) on "Two Way Switching Explained - How to wire 2 way light switch" video.

  1.  @camper1749  I would have ended that with "If you can't figure out how YouTube works, don't bother commenting." :D

  2. The only point where blue was used as a live wire was in the two conversions and I doubt someone would be happy if you tore out a section of their wall just so you could remove a blue wire and replace it with a brown one.

  3. Try again.

  4. That is true, but in a new build you also have both switches connected to the light whereas in a conversion only the original switch requires being connected to the light, this is why the two conversion variants come in handy as they do away with the need to connect the 2nd switch to the light, meaning less conduit/damage to wall and ceiling.

  5. Why are so many people struggling to understand what a conversion is? When you add a second switch to a one-switch system then doing the first variant would require a lot more work and a lot more conduit being fitted... "Why have you installed a conduit between the first switch and the second switch, and then another conduit from the second switch to the light? My friend had this conversion done and they only had one conduit that went between the two switches..." "Oh, that's because folks on YouTube told us all this extra damage to your wall and ceiling would be better!"

  6. How can you tell that the left side of the screen leads to the CU and not a junction box?

  7. It was clearly stated in the video that versions 2 and 3 were conversions, that's why they included the word 'conversion'...

  8. I have never seen them called a 3-way switch in my life, so you are literally wrong or literally not from Europe.
