Wiring Diagram Adding an Outside Light Changing a 2 Gang for a 3 Gang Switch Connections Explained

Student training aid for the connections required when changing a 2 gang light switch for a 3 gang switch so an outside light can be wired.

In the video I explains the connection required within the original 2 gang and the replacement 3 gang switch and the cable required for the new outside light

This method of wiring to the 3 gang switch means both the downstairs lighting circuit the landing light and outside light are all on the same fuse or MCB. This means that when you pull or operate just one fuse you will isolate all the conductor inside the 3 gang switch.
