[QUOTE="binky, post: 535529, member: 490"] Smart home stuff is not of great interest to most electricians, it's a different discipline. Electrics are basically power ccts, smart home gear is control circuitry, and to be frank, difficult to keep up with as standards change rapidly. Eg I was involved with a 'smart house ' about 5 years ago, everything was hard wired back to a central control system. Theses days it would almost certainly be WiFi to achieve the same thing. Trouble is with such stuff for a small company or one man band, is anything goes wrong and it's incredibly time consuming to fix, which directly affects earnings. So in short most electricians don't want to get involved in the first place. [/QUOTE]
