Three-way switches for bathroom exhaust fans - 11/06/04 11:48 PM
I was asked a question the other day that applied when I was apprenticing but I havn't seen it lately.
There was a time (maybe still is) when it was reqired to have the bathroom exhaust fan on the three way switch. One switch outside and the other inside the washroom.
I do very little residential and am unsure as to weather this rule still applies. If it does, can someone tell me where this rule came from and what its intent was. I remember asking one of my teachers who just danced around the question. I concluded at the time that he didn't actully know.
If anyone can enlighten me, I would be appreciative.
