Hi, I'm trying to spec some automated blinds to hook up to a Rako system, however we've only got twin core and earth to the location. I'm looking at the Sonesse 30 DCT and hoping that the WM-CUB will power this, but on the wiring diagram the WM-CUB seems to want to just supply 24V and switch the polarity. Anyone integrated Somfy and Rako before? Thanks

Anyone come across these before ..?? Seem to be a cost effective controller for wiring multiple circuits and not having to chase walls or replace batteries. https://www.tlc-direct.co.uk/Products/QUR304.html I can see how useful they could be in reducing the amount of wiring needed especially in complex areas such as vaulted ceilings or multi way switching. So what am I missing ..??

I am planning a rewiring and re plastering of a house so I have the opportunity to rethink and plan whole wiring circuits with future home automation possibilities (not much time to design and install a home automation system right now). So I have few options: The domestic traditional wiring system for a house which separate circuit for each area connected to the consumer unit. In this option there are several sockets or lights in one circuit. There is an alternative more expensive to install, commercial model wiring system which circuits run almost for each sockets or lights individually from a distribution board, so you have a centralised control panel of the all power outlets and lights as well. This options seems complex but more manageable if you are planning a hard wired home automation systems which I am considering not now but as a future upgrade. What would you suggest for rewiring when considering hard wired home-automation-ready option as well, if I would like to go for a distribution style wiring system by running cables most of the lights, switches and sockets individually (and some extra network, sensor cables as well) then make all necessary connections in the distribution panel ?
