    Hello,
    I have to choose sockets and switches for my home.

    I would like sockets that have a lot of "accessories" such as motion sensors, triple switches, illuminated sockets, phone chargers (USB), dimmer + cage switch,

    Could you advise on which series to look for sockets?

    PS. I like the sockets much more Shuko - are there any contraindications to use such in PL?

    There are no contraindications in the use of schuko sockets.

    It is advisable to switch all receivers on.

    Most of today's receivers have plugs adapted to this type of sockets.

    For example, I like Kos Vena and Shneider Sedna. I hate Simon because of the very poor clamps and the inconvenience of assembly.

    I assemble quite a lot of Simon Basic and Simon 54, I think the quality of the screw terminals is at least good.

    There are really no legal contraindications. However, many household appliances sold in Poland are not equipped with schuko plugs. Then you will not be able to use such devices (because you will not have electric shock protection)

    Really? Recently, it's hard to find one that is not universal. I am not talking about old hardware, but about currently available.

    I will not argue. Recently, I haven't bought anything new in protection class I.
    I understand that you think that when someone builds a house (renovates the electrical installation), apart from sockets, he will also replace all equipment (iron, refrigerator, etc.). And when buying, the most important feature that he will have to pay attention to will be the type of plug.
    Of course he can do that. Who will forbid the rich ...
    However, when using an "old" iron with a Polish plug, it will certainly not remember that there is no electric shock protection.

    extension cord, although with a peg and a third wire plus Schuko, I cannot recall vividly.
    To this day, I remember what I was doing while washing my hands .... washing machine, at a guest who partially lived in Germany and brought new products. It's a miracle that I am alive and that there was a smooth structural wall behind me, not a bolt-on.

    How much electricity will such a charger give? Now it doesn't make sense to have less than 2000mA in the drawer. And in 2-3 years everything will be on usb-C and inductive charging.
    Oh ... miraculous.

    I myself have this socket Simon Basic Module as shown in the picture and I think that it is very good quality and there was no problem with assembly.
