Timers, schedules, inching mode and smart scenes in eWeLink
Smart timers and scenes in eWeLink, plus HTTP, WebSocket and MQTT hooks for Home Assistant, OpenHAB, ioBroker and Node-RED
Indoor concealed installation: it mounts inside an electrical box, the DIN rail variant is the separate BASIC-1GSP
Indoor concealed installation: it mounts inside an electrical box
The output terminals carry the switched live wire, so the contact is not potential-free
The manual's terminal table lists the two outputs as live wire output terminals, so the contact is not potential-free
The switch measures energy in both directions.
