Changing a standard switch to a dimmer switch requires first checking that the light fixture is compatible. Standard LED bulbs are often not dimmable. Only 'dimmable' labelled LEDs work well with a dimmer. Old halogen lights do dim without issue but are rarely used now due to consumption.

The RCD (residual current device) protects people. It detects the difference between the current entering and leaving the installation. If this difference exceeds 30 milliamperes, it means something or someone is leaking current to earth, and the RCD trips in less than 30 milliseconds. This is what prevents electrocution when an appliance fault, like a washing machine, causes the metal casing to be live and you touch it. These two components are in all modern electrical panels but protect different things. The MCB (miniature circuit breaker), also called an automatic switch, protects against overloads and short circuits. If you connect too many appliances to one circuit or if two wires touch due to a fault, the MCB trips and cuts the power. Its function is to protect the installation's cables and prevent fires. Foreign owners who spend long periods away are the main clients for home automation in the area. They want to know from another country if everything is okay, if the air conditioning was left on by mistake, if there's a leak, if the indoor temperature is reasonable. A basic installation with flood sensors in the kitchen and bathroom, air control from a mobile, surveillance with two WiFi cameras, and door opening notifications costs the equivalent of three weeks of a property manager's monthly fee and provides real peace of mind.

Official manufacturer's warranty on the mechanism plus our coverage on labour. Integration is done via an app. You download the manufacturer's app, connect the device to your WiFi, and then add it as an associated device from Google Home or Alexa. Once done, you say commands like 'turn off the living room light' or 'raise the kitchen blind' and it works. Almost all modern equipment integrates with Google Home and Alexa, the two dominant assistants in Spain. Apple HomeKit is more demanding with certification and limits brand choice. It also has its audience among iPhone users who prefer a closed ecosystem.
