hmm, sockets are actually one of the simplest things, right? As already mentioned in a few posts before, just run 5-core cables to every room and later you have all the options to make individual sockets switchable. In rooms where I already have exactly 2 use cases for switchable sockets, either 7-core cables were laid or a second 5-core supply line was installed. Many system integrators also hang out in the [KUF]. Of course, they don't like it at all when the random client thinks they can do it just as well on their own.

Simpler and cheaper and also more flexible than a socket ring made of 5x1.5 per room is hardly possible. Then you don’t necessarily need the flush-mounted actuators. You clamp in the control cabinet as needed, and if the needs change 10 years later or even after just 3 months, you clamp (or have) everything as you then need it.

Without dust and without noise.

Are there UP actuators with power measurement by now?
With power measurement, I only know the RF-AZK1ST.01.
I don't think it's bad either, but it's also not really stylish. ;-)

5NYM for sockets is not exactly a total miracle either. It only brings one continuous, one measurable, and one switchable...

: Did you really solve it that way or is that just the romantic idea? It worked for me in children's room and guest room, but bathroom, kitchen, living room, heat pump, technical room, outdoor areas, ... quickly became very complicated. Sometimes one N conductor is no longer enough, then you have to discuss and plan carefully

But having that per room is already great. You can variably switch/measure up to two (groups of) sockets per room. I especially find that useful when I don't yet know exactly where/how I will use the sockets.

Better than nothing, that's true, but my wife wants the reveal socket to be switchable, I want the TV to be measurable for scenes, and then there's nothing left.

And of course it only works if the lighting is already completely wired separately, and you also have to get the electrician to run 5NYM past every socket. Mine lays individual wires and sometimes already connects the ends at the switchable socket, which then makes rewiring impossible.

If you take seven-core, you already have four groups. ;) Of course, you have to teach that to the electrician, but the effort for him is basically the same, only the cable is different. The resistance (haha!) shouldn't be too great.
