    3 way switch to motion sensor
    Hi I have a 3 way switch which goes to my motion sensor lights. Since we can not use the 3 way switch because it will screw up the motion sensor I want to cap it off. How do I cap off the wire correctly ( Which wires get capped of together)

    Thanks

    Could you just use two of these type guards and not have to even go into the box?
