Shelly Wave Pro 1 | Z-Wave DIN rail switch 16A

Powerful DIN rail relay for home automation

The Shelly Wave Pro 1 is a compact Z-Wave DIN-rail switch with floating (dry) contacts for professional switching up to 16A in the meter box. It provides the reliable link between electrical circuits and home automation in a modern smart home.

Problem statement

Many installations lack a clean, DIN-rail-ready way to centrally switch circuits, boilers, or lighting within home automation. Traditional flush-mounted modules often lack a dry contact, robust terminals, or sufficient safety at higher currents. A DIN-rail solution with Z-Wave offers professional reliability and remote management.

Key Benefits

• Switches up to 16A AC: suitable for groups, boilers and heavy loads.
• Potential-free relay: safe and flexible for different voltages/circuits.
• Z‑Wave 800 platform: modern range, efficient network and scene support.
• Narrow DIN rail design: sleek mounting in distribution board/distribution board.
• Overheating protection: extra peace of mind in professional environments.
• Low self-consumption (<0.3 W): efficient in the smart home.
• Mesh range: stable in larger Z‑Wave networks.

Technical specifications

• Protocol: Z‑Wave (EU 868.4 MHz), Z‑Wave 800 chipset.
• Power supply: 110–240 V AC, 50/60 Hz.
• Contact: 1x potential-free relay, max. 16A @ 240 V AC.
• Power metering: not present (1PM variant has metering).
• Self-consumption: approximately <0.3 W.
• Dimensions: approx. 94 × 19 × 69 mm; DIN rail mounting.
• Operating temp.: −20 °C to 40 °C (typical); RH 30–70% (indicative).
• Controls: front S button; external switch/push button connection possible.
• Wiring: rigid 0.5–2.5 mm²; clamping torque approx. 0.4 Nm.

Ease of installation

Click onto the DIN rail, connect the line, load, and, if necessary, a local switch according to the diagram and wire specifications. Set the Z-Wave controller to inclusion mode and press the S button to pair; LED indicators confirm the status. Configuration and automation are handled through the Z-Wave gateway.

Compatibility — Home Assistant

• Primary integration: Z‑Wave JS (official Z‑Wave stack in Home Assistant).
• Onboarding: Controller in inclusion mode, press S button; optional S2 security.
• Entities: On/Off switch; no power/energy telemetry on this model.
• Known limitations: No power meter; choose Wave Pro 1PM for measurement.
  

Compatibility — Other platforms

• Homey: Supported via Z‑Wave (functions: switching, automation).
• SmartThings: Supported as a generic Z‑Wave switch (switching, scenes/automation).
• Hubitat: unknown (functions: unknown; possible via community driver).
  
• Fibaro: unknown (generic Z‑Wave compatibility expected, not confirmed).

Practical automation

Example: Switch off a 2 kW boiler (max. 16 A) outside off-peak hours and when no one is there; the floating contact provides safe galvanic isolation and reliable home automation.

Disadvantage

No built-in power measurement; choose the Shelly Wave Pro 1PM when real-time energy insights are needed.
