Convert an intermediate circuit to push buttons and an impulse relay
An intermediate circuit needs many cores between the switches. With push buttons and an impulse relay, one button line is enough, and you can add as many switch positions as you like.

More about this change
The switches are replaced by push buttons. The impulse relay is best placed in the junction box and toggles on every press.
What to watch out for
- A flush-mounted impulse relay (e.g. Eltako ES12) needs some room in the junction box. Otherwise it goes on the DIN rail in the distribution board.
- The impulse relay needs neutral for its coil. The junction box has it.
What you need
- 1× Flush-mounted impulse relay (e.g. Eltako ES12)
