    Hello
    I say up front that I haven't had much to do with home automation.
    To the point. I wanted to install a relay for lighting with google home control. The diagram of the relay I found looks like this. 1 and 2 are two different suggested ways to connect it. However, I would like to connect it using a bistable relay and two monostable switches. This resulted in a diagram marked 3. Hence my question. Is this connection correct and will it then be possible to switch the light on and off independently both via google home and with one of the two switches placed in the wall? How do I make remote controlled lighting and will this scheme make it possible? .

    Describe how you want to control and what switches you currently have, or if you can change them.
    There are smart relays of this type controlled by bell switches - e.g. Sonoff mini DIY.

    I don't have any yet, I'm planning to buy some which is why I'm asking. As for the wiring, the installation will be redone so there is complete freedom. Ultimately, I want to be able to switch lights on and off (one lapma) with one of two switches or an app, so I would like the module to be able to connect to Google home. It doesn't have to be this particular one but I haven't found any others that meet these requirements. Unless you can link to one.

    See the aforementioned Sonoff mini DIY - you connect any number of monostable switches in parallel and can control any switch and app.
    There are other possibilities too - such as in the diagram you provided - number 2.

    I am already looking. I know that with staircase switches, which are in diagram 2, it works in the same way (you can switch both with one and the other) but with a monostable relay, to my understanding it should also work And for me it looks more aesthetically pleasing than several switches next to each other and each in a different position.

    It is sufficient to use a relay that works with monostables - e.g. in the Sonoff Mini you define the method of control (whether a monostable or bistable switch is connected).

    I started similarly to a colleague, then Zamel with 0-10V control, and finally bought a couple of Shelly Dimmer units where I will want to dim, and a double Shelly 2.5, as all the relays will be in the switchboard. If you have to connect somewhere in the box, then a regular Shelly 1 or so.

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around the installation of a relay for remote-controlled lighting using Google Home.
