      I understand basic switch wiring, but I’m hoping that someone can explain (or refer me to a site that can explain) how to wire switches in which there are 3 side-by-side switches (not three-way; each goes to it’s own fixture). It looks like the black wire goes from source to switch to switch but I’m not sure where the white wire(s) go… Thanks for any assistance, Marcia

      Switch

      IF the WHITE wire is a NEUTRAL…..it’s NEVER switched……ALL the Neutrals get conneted together.

      Some white wires….(should be re-marked black)….. carry power in a “SwitchLoop”…..Or in three-way set-ups……..
