    3 Pole Switch Wiring Question

    That's reassuring teletrix. ;) I should clarify that the green wire was originally pigtailed and not connected to anything so I believe it's safe to assume this as neutral. My current assumption is the two blue wires are travellers (which I will test if the wire becomes hot after turning...
