Can a 4 way switch be used in place of a 3 way switch?
No a 3-way is a single pole double throw. A four way switch swaps travelers.
How can you tell if the switch that you have is a 3 way or not?
3 way switches have 3 terminals. A common on and off switch only has 2.
How do you wire a 3-way dimmer and switch it in 3 locations?
One 3-way dimmer switch, one regular 3-way switch and one 4-way switch. The 4-way is wired between the two pairs of travelers from the other two switches. The common on the dimmer is tied to either the light or to the branch hot and the common on the other 3-way is tied to whichever is left (hot or the light).
What coil will be greater if the primary coil of a transformer has 40 turns and the secondary coil has 60 turns?
The voltage ratio is 2:3. So for every 2 volts in you'll get 3 volts out. Secondary = 1.5 x Primary Voltage.
How do you wire a timer switch to a 3 way light switch?
First you need to decide what you are trying to accomplish. You can wire the Timer switch in series with or parallel to the 3-way switches. If in series then the 3-way switch function would depend on the timer state. If the Timer switch was ON then the 3-way switch could turn the connected device ON or OFF from either location. If the Timer switch were OFF the device would be OFF no matter what you did with 3-way switches. To wire in this fashion put the timer between the supply and the input to the switches. If the Timer is in parallel then if the Timer is ON it doesn't matter what you do with the 3-way switch, the device will be ON as long as the Timer is ON. If the Timer is OFF then the 3-way switches will work in their normal fashion. To wire in parallel connect the supply to one side of the Timer and the device to the other.

What is the eletrical symbol for a three way switch?
If you have the symbol for a regular switch, a 3-way switch is the same symbol with a '3' next to it like a subscript.
What size wire do you need for 60 amps 400ft 220 volts?
Use AWG # 3 copper.
What is the voltage with a 60 resistance and 3V?
You answered it already - 3 volts - I think you need to reconsider and restate your question.
How do you wire a 3-way dimmer and switch it in 3 locations?
One 3-way dimmer switch, one regular 3-way switch and one 4-way switch. The 4-way is wired between the two pairs of travelers from the other two switches. The common on the dimmer is tied to either the light or to the branch hot and the common on the other 3-way is tied to whichever is left (hot or the light).
How do you switch a fraction into a percent?
Divide the top number(numerator) by the bottom number(denominator). 3/5 3 divided by 5 =.60 60%
There are 2 3-way switches controlling 2 receptacles went to replace one of the switches but when checking the voltage at the outlet it is either 60 volts or 120 volts at box when switched - you help?
One or both of the switches is miswired and the two lamps are in series. When everything else fails. Read the instructions.
