OPTION 1: push-button 
A push-button is not a normal switch. The electric current is only transmitted when the button is pressed (for example a doorbell). 
But if a push-button is used in combination with an impulse relay in the fuse box, then it can be used as a one-way switch, a two-way switch, a timer or a stairwell switch. 
And if a push-button is used in combination with home automation then it can be used as a one-way switch, a two-way switch or a stairwell switch, a dimmer, a shutter switch, a doorbell button, a master switch, etc. 


General characteristics push-button: 

- Compatible with Ø 7 cm flush-mounted boxes. 
- Compatible with stairwell impulse relays. 
- Compatible with home automation. 
- Compatible with a timer. 

OPTION 2: push-button with universal regulator 
A push-button with a universal regulator becomes a classic switch with dimmer. 
This configuration allows you to switch off, switch on and dim a light bulb. 
If you install two push-buttons, they will function as two-way switches. 
There is no limit to the number of push-buttons that can operate a circuit.

- This push-button is sold with a built-in regulator, to be placed in a 7 cm Ø flush-mounted box. 
- Load for incandescent or halogen bulbs: 4W-250W

How do I install a flush mount outlet?

When an outlet is called "flush mount", it means that you have to insert it into the wall through a flush mounting box. The wiring is hidden in this flush mounting box, hence the name "flush mount outlet". Here is an example of a single flush mounting box and a double flush mounting box.
To install an outlet into the wall, you need to install a flush mounting box that provides enough space for the connecting cables. This box must be recessed in the plaster and the front face must be flush with the wall.
Zangra sockets are always sold with a standard flush mounting box.
