Nest thermostat & dual fuel heat pump question
I'm wanting to install (3) Nest (gen 3) thermostats in a home that has (3) floors. First and second floors have Trane thermostats with the current wiring setup. My question is, how would I wire up the nest thermostats with the current wiring configuration listed below. I attempted to wire them up using the heat/cool wiring diagram, and didn't think about it being a dual-fuel system needing a heat pump and so that changes things drastically... Any help would be so greatly appreciated!


The third floor has a Honeywell thermostat using a 2h/1c auxiliary configuration.
I unfortunately don't have a picture of the wiring for the third floor, but if I can get the first and second floors figured out I can come back to the third floor later. Since the first and second floors use the same thermostat and wiring configuration, they will be the easiest.
Additional information:
If there's anything else I can provide as far as additional information goes, just let me know and I'll get what I can posted on here for you guys.
Thank you ahead of time for any help anyone can provide, I'm in a time crunch so getting this figured out sometime this week would be a huge help.
Thanks!

Welcome to the forums.
You'd follow the heatpump designations.... not heat/cool.
We need to know what current stat you are using there.... make and model #.

Red --------> Rc
Blue -------> Y2
White ------> W1
Orange ----> O
Green ------> G
Black ------> B
The fact that your system uses an O and B switching is a problem.
