π SONOFF Basic DIN Rail 32A Zigbee Smart Switch (BASIC-ZB1GSP)
Heavy-duty control for your biggest circuits. The Basic DIN Rail Smart Switch is a 32A double-pole smart switch that clips straight onto the DIN rail in your distribution board β built for high-current South African loads like geysers, EV chargers, heat pumps and pool pumps. It uses Zigbee 3.0, so it pairs with any Zigbee coordinator β SONOFF ZBBridge-P, ZBDongle-E, Amazon Echo Hub, SmartThings, or Home Assistant with ZHA / Zigbee2MQTT β and joins your existing Zigbee mesh as a mains-powered router. Live energy & power monitoring and built-in overload protection keep watch over the circuit. MPN: BASIC-ZB1GSP.
β‘ Key Features
- Zigbee 3.0 β open, low-power mesh protocol; joins any Zigbee 3.0 coordinator with no vendor lock-in
- Acts as a Zigbee Router β mains-powered, so it strengthens and extends your Zigbee mesh for battery-powered sensors nearby
- 32A Double-Pole Switching β disconnects both live and neutral for full isolation, the correct way to switch heavy loads like geysers and EV chargers β confirm exact rating on packaging
- DIN-Rail Mount β clips onto a standard 35mm DIN rail in your DB board for a clean, permanent installation
- Energy & Power Monitoring β tracks voltage, current, power and consumption so you can see exactly what a big load is drawing and costing
- Overload Protection β configurable protection against over-current, over-voltage and over-power conditions β confirm exact thresholds
- Scheduling & Automation β timers, schedules and smart scenes (in the eWeLink app with a SONOFF ZBBridge, or in Home Assistant / SmartThings with any Zigbee coordinator)
- Fully Local Control β with Home Assistant + ZHA or Zigbee2MQTT, all control is 100% local β no cloud, no internet dependency, no eWeLink account required
- Home Assistant β integrates natively via ZHA or Zigbee2MQTT
