In Europe we have DIN rail X10 appliance modules which allow permanent hard wiring using neat switches enclosed in circuit breaker boxes.

for people who are interested.



Is there anything equivalent to those for 110V? I'd like to permanently wire in appliances such as say a pool heater where leads terminated by plugs seem inappropriate. I've seen the X10 wall outlet (model PAO11) which does look more professional, but is there anything even more suitable available for permanent wiring?

There are hardwired modules that fit into standard switchboxes. See the Leviton line of Decora Home Control (X10) products at leviton.com or

Thanks Bruce. I just looked through the Decora catalogues and didn't spot those. The closest I saw were some non-Decora products called Fixture Relay Modules

which do not appear to be designed for box mounting. Is that what you had in mind or do you have any part numbers or names I should be chasing?

For pool pumps and the like, the Leviton 6371 DPDT works well for 220v circuits. For SPDT circuits us the 6291.

Many thanks Bruce.
