Dingz diameter and wall boxes

epijim

We currently live in DE, but will move to CH. I brought a Dingz just to test it out before we moved, as wanted to also see what the API and home assistant integration is like.

The Dingz is the same diameter as our german wall box, but there are two little screw holes in the inside walls of the switch wall box that go into the cavity, so a Dingz can't be pushed in. I looked at Toom, and it seems most German wall boxes also won't fit a Dingz as they have these little bumps.

Does this exist in Switzerland as well? E.g. do I need to tell our electrician to use a particular wall box in order to fit a Dingz? Or does Dingz fit into all Swiss wall boxes, and this is just an issue if trying to use Dingz in Germany?

Including an image below. Issue are the two bits that jut into the cavity on the left and right.

The box looks different than the ones I used to see on installations. Here in Switzerland just follow the Feller Standard and in most of the cases it will be ok. Did you already decide what kind of frames you intend to use?

We have just installed 10 Dingz in a renovated house, using standard Swiss wall boxes (and Feller frames) and it all fit fine.

Hey cool! Let us know if you need any further informations!

So far I am having fun trying to script the whole config. The aim is to have one single config file that describes the whole house, and a script that applies it. So if I want to change something I change the config, run the script, and done.
