Multiway Switching with 3 Switches: Possible?

[raynard]

Hi everybody,

I was wondering, is it possible to create a multiway switching circuit with 3 switches, and all of them being standard 3-way ones ? (in other words: is it really necessary to use a 4-way switch instead ?)

thanks in advance!

Controlling a light with 3 separate switches like in a hallway requires one four-way switch and 2 three-way switches. You cannot cheat here.
