Is it difficult to wire a 2 way switch?

You are talking about a single throw double pole switch. connect one end to the wire and the other two poles to independent wires.

It is not difficult because you will just have one hot wire and one ground wire. Just make sure you have them hooked up correctly.

No. A two-way switch is the simplest of all. The switch is connected in series with the load device (such as a light.)

It is not hard, but all electrical work must be done very carefully. When you work with electricity, fire and shock are always serious risks.

Without knowing the exact type of switch, circuit wiring and intended application any switch can be difficult to wire. If unsure it is better left to an electrician.

No its not difficult at all.You need to take out the power supply to the house so that you will not get electrocuted and always know that safety comes first.The first time I had to wire a switch I was 16 years old and did it in 2-3 minute so its not difficult.

Well, a two way switch works in pairs and yes it is difficult to wire because you will need to connect both wires in a way that they will work together.
