This is where the fun comes in :-)

If you want to control each socket via X10, then you need to star wire
rather than use the traditional ring main, lots of rewiring in your average
house :-(

Dependant on your current wiring, it may be possible to have a few groups
of
distributed DIN modules. Alternatively there are some "micro
modules" that
you may be able to sit in your existing sockets / light switches (although
some have not had very good long term reviews)
