Two-way switching is a common electrical wiring technique used to control lighting or other electrical devices from two different locations. It involves using two switches to control a single light or electrical device, allowing the user to turn it on or off from either switch.

The two switches are usually referred to as "two-way switches" or "double pole switches" and are connected in a specific way to enable this functionality. In this setup, each switch has two terminals, one for the incoming power supply and the other for the outgoing power to the light or electrical device.

When the switches are wired correctly, the position of the switches determines whether the light or device is on or off. For example, if the light is on and switch A is in the "up" position, switching it to the "down" position will turn the light off. However, if switch B is in the "up" position at the same time, switching it to the "down" position will turn the light back on.

Two-way switching is commonly used in homes and commercial buildings where lights or devices need to be controlled from multiple locations, such as a staircase with switches at the top and bottom or a hallway with switches at either end.
