IV. PROCEDURES
A. Reviewing previous Review of lamps controlled by single pole single throw switch.
or presenting the new A single switch is actually a single-pole single-throw switch that
lesson is used to control a lamp or group of lamps in one location only. It has
two terminals and a definite “ON” and “OFF” position. Single switch is also
known as a one-way switch.
B. Establishing a The students will have an activity wherein they will try to make a diagram
purpose of the lesson of a lamp controlled by three single switches in different locations. They
should be able to turn the lamp “ON” or “OFF” in any of the three locations.
However, they will not be able to make one because it is impossible to
control a lamp or a circuit in three different
locations with just single switches. To control a lamp in three different
locations, a special type of switch is needed, and that is the four-way
 switch.
C. Presenting “IT’S PICTURE TIME!” Present an illustration showing a common
Examples/ Instances application of four-way switches. A lamp in a staircase (second and third
of the new lesson floor) controlled by two three-way switches and four switches in three
locations: one switch at the bottom of the staircase, one switch on the
second floor and the other at the upper floor.

D. Discussing new “JUST DO IT!” Four-way switches are used to control lighting from
concepts and three or more locations. Four-way switches are used in combination with
practicing new skills three-way switches. There are four terminals that provide two sets of
(1) toggle positions on four-way switch. When the switch is in the up position,
the current can flow through two terminals. Four-way switch is actually
double-pole single-throw switch, which mean they have four terminals: four
traveler wire. It is used to control a lamp from three different locations. It is
used in stairs, hallways, or in a large room with more than one entrance.
These switches do not have an “ON” and “OFF” position like
single switches. It is important to understand how these are wired before
attempting to install, replace, or troubleshoot. Switching a lamp “ON” or
“OFF” from three or more locations requires two three-way switches and a
four-way. There are several arrangements of wiring to achieve this, but the
most common is the traveler system. In the traveler method, one of the
power line (Line 1) is fed into the common terminal of one of the switches,
while the other power line (Line 2) is for the lamp. The switches are then
connected to a four-way switch in between of the two three-way pair of
wires called “travelers”, and the lamp is connected to the common terminal
of the other switch.
E. Discussing New The pictorial diagram below will be used as reference for the actual wiring
Concepts and of three-way switches and a four-way switch.
Practicing New Skills
(2) A lamp controlled by two three-way switches and a four-way switch
(S3WA, S3WB and S4W)

Steps in the actual wiring of two three-way switches and a four-way switch
controlling a lamp from three (3) different locations:
1. Observe safety precautions.
2. Prepare all necessary tools and materials.
3. Connect Line 1 to the Common (0) terminal of three-way switch A
(S3WA).
4. Connect Line 2 to the Terminal 1 of the lamp.
5. Connect Terminal 2 of lamp to the Common terminal of three-way
switch B(S3WB).
6. Connect the travelers: the One (1) terminal of S3WA to the 1
terminal of S4Wand the Three (3) terminal of S3WA to the 3 terminal of
S4W.
7. Connect the travelers: the One (1) terminal of S3WB to the 2
terminal of S4Wand the Three (3) terminal of S3WBto the 4 terminal of
S4W.
8. Check wiring for faults and wrong connections using multi-
tester or bulb continuity tester.
9. Energize and test.
F. Developing mastery The students will perform the steps in actual wiring of four-way switches
 (leads to Formative using the same diagram of a lamp controlled by two three-way switches

daily living. 2. As an EIM (Electrical Installation and Maintenance) student, how will this
lesson help you in your future endeavors?
H. Making Why is it important learn the wiring plan for electrical installation especially
generalization and installing three-way switch and four-way switches?
abstraction about the Four-way switch is commonly used today in any type of
lesson construction and electrical installations worldwide. Therefore, an
electrician, to be competent worldwide, should be able to install three-way
switches. There are several arrangements of wiring to achieve this, but the
most common is the traveler system. In the traveler method, one of the
power lines (Line 1) is fed into the common terminal of one of the switches,
while the other power line (Line 2) is for the lamp
I. Evaluating Learning The students will draw the schematic diagram of a lamp controlled by two
three-way switches and a four-way switch.

J. Additional activities
The students will draw a wiring diagram of a lamp controlled in three
for application or
different locations using two three-way switch and a four-way switch.
