hello
soooo...๐Ÿ˜… i recently changed all the light switches in my house. now i saw a video that showed the 2 tiny wires inside the switch should be connected to the "in" and "out" thingies. BUT, before installation, i stick them in a power outlet (witch has a phase and a zero obviously ๐Ÿ˜Ž) and saw that it lighted up. Therefore, for all light switches, i connected the 2 tiny wires to the wires inside power outlets next to the light switches...๐Ÿคจ

Now the question is: is that ok? will there be problems or dangers?
I'm ok with them LEDs being always on.

Welcome to the forum. I think photos would help here. Maybe they are fused connection units rather than light switches?
