I'm familiar with wiring a single gang 2way light switch and have looked at FAQ wiring diagrams on this site.
To connect 2X 2Gang 2Way switches together, do I simply double up on the standard wiring i.e. run 2X 3core+E between the switches or can I "piggy back" any of the connections.
Obviously I can put a jumper from the live feed between the two gangs in the first switch, but can I "save" any other cores between the switches ?
Both lights are on the same (new) circuit, and both switches operate only a single ceiling pendant light.
A clear wiring diagram would be much appreciated.
If no shortcuts, I will have a twin & E + single core going to each switch (using a jumper) and also 2X 3&E between the switches - Seems an awful lot of wires to squeeze into channel & back boxes !
