Can a 3 way switch reversed?
My electrician wired 5, 3way switches in my hall and the corresponding set of 5 in my games room.
My problem is that when all 5 switches are in the down position in the hall and thus all 5 switches in the games room are in the corresponding up position, I still have 1 light that stays on.
I have to have 1 switch out of the 10 in the out of sequence position.
Can a 3way switch be installed upside down or reversed. May be a problem with the switch itself?
I have spoken to the electrician and he had a hard time even admitting 1 switch was not the same as the other 9 and he said you could not reverse a 3way.
Has anyone come across this before and know what the problem is?
Thanks or any assistance
