Q: Can you put a dimmer on a three-way switch?

• <div><p>Yes, you can put a dimmer on a three-way switch, but it can&rsquo;t be the same kind of dimmer you&rsquo;d put on a standard light switch. A three-way switch requires a three-way dimmer. If two switches control a single or multiple lights, then you need a three-way dimmer.

Q: Can you cap off live electrical wires?

• <div><p>No, it&rsquo;s extremely dangerous to cap off live electrical wires. Working with live wires puts you at serious risk of electric shock, which can cause injury or even be fatal.
