Ahead of the UK winter I plan to replace the fused switches connecting to the radiators with smart switches.
The original fused switches look like this:
When I source the smart switches, I find that I have options of:
(A) Internal devices to be tucked inside the back box (such as below). I assume that I can tuck the smart device in the back box (given there is space) and connect it to the existing fused switch.
(B) Replacing the existing switch with a smart switch with front (such as below).
In this case there is less issue of space in back box for the smart switch.

- How should I weigh the two options? Are there better options I haven't thought about?
- For option B, what is the best way to keep the fuse in the rewired circuit?
