RE: X10 Question

["Phil Harris" <phillip.harris1@xxxxxxx>]

I've seen DIN rail phase couplers but I can't for the hell of me remember the product codes (FD10?) ... I think they're sold as DIN rail X10 filters and you can run a wire between several to send X10 across different phases.

This question has probably been dealt with before and to that effect my apologies.

I have moved to a new house that is fed by a 3 phase supply. I have installed some low voltage halogen lights in two of the outlets of a looped circuit. Each outlet is not individually switched except back at the consumer unit and for the whole loop. I would like to individually switch the halogen lights. The lights are fitted on top of a bookcase where there  is plenty of room to add - out of sight - additional 12v transformer sized units.

I have two questions:

What would be your recommendation for the type of module I should wire next to the halogen fittings?

Will it matter which phase my X10 controller is plugged into?  and if it does, and I have no convenient access to the same phase as that of the lights, is there a way around that?
