Default Replace a 2 way switch by time lag switch
Hi All,

I would like to know how you can replace a 2 way switch on corridor by a time lag switch also called "landlord switch"
How does it need to be wired

Thanks a lot

Eric

You can do anything you want with a 2-way switch, because they don't exist. In a landlord tennent situation you should not be so cheap and hire an electrician and have it done right. Try going back and reading the rules to the forum, I think the answer you seek will be in there.
Hey Speedy what taking you so long?

Your first step should be to hire a LICENSED ELECTRICIAN!
