Title: Neil Frost Stationery
Thanks to those who replied, I'm getting there in the design stage (I think?). It's a big job (also running CAT5 to just about every conceivable point in the house.........x4) so I'm trying to think of everything............
 
Has anyone done this and thought after "I wish I had done this........." if so could you let me know as I really don't want to forget anything or SWMBO would definitely NOT be impressed if I want to hack the new plaster off the walls. ( I was lucky enough that she agreed to all this in the first place!!!!!)
 
Also has anyone had any experience of underfloor heating and controlling it using X10?
 
I notice Mark McCall has.............
 
Thanks Again
 
Neil

Help please....
 
I am about to buy a house that requires a total rewire and am thinking about X10 and possibly using Comfort to control it...........
 
I have looked at Mark McCall's wiring of his house www.automatedhome.co.uk/wiring/cable.html and have noted the quantity of DIN Rail modules.
 
Am I right in thinking.......
 
1. That each light in the house would need to be separately wired to an X10 Din rail module (if I was using those) of it's own as apposed to the standard way of wiring the lights? But still use standard light switches?
 
2. For 2 way light switching I would use an AD10 module and for normal switching an LD10 module?
 
3. As for any appliances modules what devices would you (anyone) recommend be wired to an X10 din rail?
 
Thanks in advance for any (useful) reply.
 
Neil
