The old colours at 2 way switches I don't agree with there. We always used to use yellow in the common and the 2 reds together in one strapper and the black and blue in the other strapper lol, so what who cares just saying.

Hi Dave, point is any colour combination would be acceptable lol, nice drawing though haha

Yeah I thought id put them on here as they are nicely illustrated. I agree though, any combination works so long as its correct. For the purpose of the drawing though....

Yes, differing methods of wiring also - I normally install 2 way (stair lighting) with the 3 core containing 2 strappers and neutral - live and sw/live on switch commons.
