[tontze]

Hi !

Been trying to find information about z-wave switches that dont need neutral wire. My light switches doesnt have neutral line

Anyone ? EU frequencies

Junction box on ceiling has neutral, put module there.

Aeotec Nano Dimmer

Neutral not required.

Nano Dimmer isn’t just better at lighting compatibility, it’s better at wiring compatibility too.

Whether your lights are installed in a 2-wire or 3-wire system, Nano Dimmer is compatible. Lighting Engine auto-detects whether your light switches have a neutral wire or not, then automatically adjusts it settings.

The Fibaro FGD-212, if you need a dimmer. I think Fibaro also have simple switches not needing neutral...
Lot's of modules need neutral because they switch the AC at next 0V crossing, which is less stressful especially for heavy/inductive loads.

This looks perfect, they have also nano switch coming up

Does anyone know if the nano dimmers from eaotec also compatible with domoticz?

Domoticz uses OpenZwave. In OpenZwave the new nano dimmer is included 2 months ago see also line 126.

When looking at this OpenZwave Openzwave is included into the Domoticz binary. As long as you don't compiled Domoticz yourself, you will receiver the verion Gizmocuz includes.

When you do compile Domoticz yourself, you manually can update openzwave.

GE/Jasco also makes a dimmer without a neutral. as a note tho... if you do not have a neutral then you can only use incandescent and halogen bulbs (AC only). so pretty much anything that has a driver or a ballast has to have a neutral wire at the switch and a z-wave dimmer that is capable. I have not come across a dimmer that can do led's or the 12 volt halogens with no neutral. Doesn't mean it doesn't exist tho ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
