Step 4

Loosen socket outlet

Loosen the socket outlet that you want to make smart from the flush-mounting box, without disconnecting the cabling.

A

First loosen the central plate using a screwdriver.

B

Detach the central plate from the wall.

C

Then remove the finishing set from the wall using a screwdriver.

Warning: This method only applies when removing Niko switches with a square central plate (in the range since 2006).

D

Unscrew the existing socket outlet from the flush-mounting box and pull the socket outlet out of the wall without undoing the cabling.

  • Tip: Take a photo of the current cabling clearly showing which wire is connected to which clamp. As such, you can easily map out the current connection diagram.
