Frequently Asked Questions
Do both outlets on this receptacle have Z-Wave smart control?
No. The unit contains one Z-Wave controlled grounded outlet (bottom) for wireless scheduling and automation, and one standard always-on grounded outlet (top) for continuous pass-through power.
Does this smart outlet require a neutral wire for installation?
Yes, in-wall installation requires hardwired connections including a neutral wire, line wire, and ground wire.
Does it require a Z-Wave hub? Yes. Wireless control, scheduling and voice integrations require a compatible hub and its supported features. Check the exact hub’s compatibility before purchase.
What does tamper resistant mean? The receptacle has shutters designed to restrict insertion into an individual slot. It is not childproof, and the feature does not eliminate electrical hazards.
