Hello,
unfortunately, we did not order this directly, so the electrical outlets in the children's rooms are standard sockets without additional protection. Before I apply these plastic covers, I wanted to check if it is possible to replace the socket insert instead?
I’m uncertain because I just read that it is not allowed to upgrade a standard socket to one with enhanced touch protection. Apparently, the "socket dimensions" must not be altered...?

I wouldn’t do it only in the children’s room but everywhere.
We’ve had it everywhere for 4.5 years and it works.

In 2017/2018, it was 1.2 euros per switch at Busch and JägerI've already noted it in the handy booklet on the page for the electrician appointment. In this case, the additional cost for the entire house is really negligible.W

It’s negligible and there is no noise.
We had to follow up on it. It’s not a standard feature. Until just now, I didn’t even know something like that existed. For me, child safety always meant those twist locks.
