Hi, I've seen some light switches in the Netherlands that I'd like to use at home.
Does anyone know if the IEE regs require light switches to have specific UK approvals or are the European approvals good for us too?

(Can't see why there should be any safety issue and the fixings are on the same centres so I can use the existing wall boxes.)
 
not sure about 7671 but there is no legal requirement to comply with that anyway.

and part P just requires reasonable precautions to be taken to protect users of the installation, i can't really see how using a fitting made to the standards of another first world country would violate that.
