Can dimmer switches be used with 3 way switches?
Yes. Instead of sending the hot wire straight from one of the three way switches to the light, put a dimmer switch on the hot wire to control the light.
How do you wire a 4 bulb fluorescent light on 2 separate switches?
That will only work if there are two ballasts in the unit.
How do you wire 2 switches to same lights?
This is done using two two-way switches, switches with two switching position. The input live wire from the circuit breaker goes to the middle point of one switch. The output live wire to the light is connected to the middle point of the second switch. The two remaining points from one switch are then connected to the two remaining points on the other switch. The neutral from the light goes straight to the neutral bar in the Distribution Board.
