In a word, yes, but I would also disconnect them at the distribution
point as well, just t  be sure. The last thing you want is a short in
there!

Subject: [ukha_d] 2 way / 3 way Switching Question

I am planning on installing some X10 switches t  replace some lights
in the hall and on the landing.

I have two scenarios:

1) I have hall lights controlled by 2 seperate switches, I plan to
install a LW10 at one end and an SS13 (RF X10 switch at the other)
over the second.

This is t  avoid pulling up the floorboards t  install an LD10. PLus
I can use the other switches on the SS13 t  trigger other X10 macros.


2) Upstairs I have a landing light controlled by 3 seperate switches.
Again I plan to install an LW10 on 1 switch point, and SS13 over the
second and a blanking plate on the third.

My question is, what do I do with the wires at each blanking point?
Do I just terminate them in connector blocks, effectivly leaving them
switched off?

Thanks for your help!
Neill
