Hey good afternoon guys.
I have a question about the wiring of a light fixture in my house. There was an older light here that is controlled by two different switches(one located in the hallway and one located in the bedroom.) I removed the old fixture and this was how the wiring was. Using my voltage tester I know that one of the white is hot when the switches are turned on and the The other is neutral. My concern is doesn’t both incoming cables have to have a dedicated neutral?? I don’t want to just reword a new light switch the same way as this if it is dangerous. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
