{"product_id":"nous-a1z-zigbee-slimme-stekker","title":"Nous A1Z Zigbee Smart Plug with Power Monitoring | 2500W 16A | Type F","description":"\u003ch2\u003eNous A1Z Zigbee Smart Plug with Energy Monitoring\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWant to know how much power a device consumes and switch it remotely from Home Assistant? The Nous A1Z combines these features in one compact Schuko plug. The A1Z measures power, voltage, and current in real-time, switches via Zigbee 3.0, and simultaneously acts as a Zigbee Router to strengthen your network. No neutral wire, no installation, no tools: just plug in and pair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePower and Connectivity\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Nous A1Z operates on 230V AC via a Type F (Schuko) plug and consumes less than 0.5W in standby. Communication takes place via Zigbee 3.0; because the device is permanently powered, it also functions as a Zigbee Router and automatically strengthens your Zigbee network. You will need a Zigbee coordinator, a Tuya Zigbee gateway, or Homey to use the plug.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eEnergy Monitoring and Switching Function\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe A1Z measures real-time power (watts), voltage (volts), and current (amperes). Via Zigbee2MQTT or ZHA, all measured values are available as separate entities in Home Assistant. The maximum load is 3680W with a peak current of 16A and a continuous load of up to 10A (2300W). A physical button on the device manually switches the connected device on or off, even if the Zigbee connection is lost.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOverload Protection\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe A1Z has built-in overload protection. If the maximum load is exceeded, the plug automatically switches off to protect the connected device.
