5 switches to control one load using Relays and switches

Using SPDT, SPST & Relay switches to control on/off of load. if more switches required, then more relays can be connected in series. 
Applied example: Multiple switches in a long corridor controlling one load (e.g. lights, fan, etc.)
Note: DPDT switches may have been easier to wire (not provided as an option), so instead used 2 relays and 1 SPST switch to make an equivalent 1 DPDT switch.

Pretty slick simulation you've created here! Nice work

Thanks wyoelk. Life would have been a lot easier if DPDT switches were provided. Maybe next update.

You can request components by selecting the + symbol at the end of the components list. Not sure if you knew that or not

I am new to this. Though i did just check and it does not show the + symbol at the end of the selection, probably why i was not aware of it

I only use a phone so on a pc/tablet I don't know where it is located. Sorry
