Discuss Can I use one 12/3 wire to serve as travelers for two different sets of lights in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

Can I use one 12/3 wire to serve as travelers for two different sets of lights controlled by 2 sets of 3way switches, with 2 switch per box?
As stated above the answer is no. What if one set of lights is powered by one phase and the other lights are supplied by another phase. BANG
