Paralleling two sources of the same voltage does NOT change voltage.

Does sound simple, but what happens when one switch is on, which means the red wire of both are energized, then the other switch is turned on at the same time? Seems to me you have just doubled the volts on the wires leading to the light.

They are in essence just automated switches so you should be able to replace the switches with the sensors. The sensors have three wires as do the manual switches. Just wire them the same red to red, white to white and black to black.

We just started a managing another building. There are stairs that had a 3-way on top and bottom. The new owner says he wants a movement sensor in both places, instead. I am not familiar with a way that an arrangement like that can happen. Does anyone know of a way to do this?
