Electrical - 3-way, Power on Traveler

[Al Bundy]

Have a 3w switch and am trying to locate it's use. Did a quick check of some lights, outlets/split outlets. Lots more trial & error to cover.

Is this any indication of what configuration I am looking for?

- White on common (dark terminal and verified it's common with wires off and a meter).

- Black (hot) on traveler - same physical side as common.

- Red on traveler (opposite side of common and other traveler).

Removing the wires from the switch and all open, black is hot, white & red cold.

Thanks, Al

If I understand your question you have a 3 way and you don't know what it is for.

Leave it disconnected and find what is not working.
