I would like to make my laundry machine a bit more smart. So notifications can be pushed when the laundry is done (= energy draw stops). For this I am looking for a smart plug that can measure power. Since the laundry machine outlet (EU socket) is close to a sink, I would like to use an outdoor rated plug. I found WiFi plugs fitting the bill, but the whole house is covered with Zigbee, so I would like to stick to the Zigbee mesh.
Anyone know of a device that fits these requirements?
Requirements
- Protocol: Zigbee
- Load: >10A
- Rating: Outdoor (IP44 or more) because of use in the bathroom close to sink
- Feature: Energy measurement
- Socket: EU
What have I found
Nous - A4Z ZigBee Outdoor Smart Socket A4Z ZigBee Outdoor Smart Socket
Perfect fit! However, cannot be ordered anywhere.
The not available for sale A4Z?
Ledvance- SMART+ COMPACT OUTDOOR PLUG
Almost OK, but does not have energy metering
You mean trying to put a module like this Zigbee high load switch into a wallbox like this ?
