| 1 | Neutral-Wire Single-Gang Relay Switch | General lighting in newer residential wiring | Usually 100–240 V AC; commonly rated up to 10 A resistive load, subject to the product specification | Required | One physical push button plus app and automation control | Usually operates on the 2.4 GHz Zigbee band; confirm the coordinator supports the device profile | Wide-voltage design is suitable for many 120 V and 230 V markets; wall-box depth and gang size still vary | Check load type, minimum load, terminal layout, and local electrical approval |
| 2 | Neutral-Wire Two-Gang Multi-Channel Switch | Rooms with two separately controlled light circuits | Commonly 100–240 V AC; total current may be limited across all channels | Required | Two independent rocker or push controls | Zigbee networking enables independent scene control and schedules for each channel | Useful for homes using different lighting circuits, but faceplate dimensions are not universal | Verify per-channel and total-load limits rather than relying only on the headline rating |
| 3 | No-Neutral Single-Gang Switch | Older homes where the wall box has no neutral conductor | Often supports 100–240 V AC, but the allowable load range is usually narrower | Not required | Physical switch with wireless control and automation | Some models require a bypass or capacitor at the light fixture to reduce LED flicker | Suitable for retrofit projects, but compatibility depends strongly on lamp wattage and circuit design | Confirm minimum load, bypass requirements, LED compatibility, and whether a neutral is truly absent |
| 4 | Neutral-Wire Three-Gang Switch | Large rooms, kitchens, hallways, and open-plan spaces | Typically 100–240 V AC; current limits may apply to each channel and the combined device | Required | Three independently addressable lighting channels | Good for multi-scene automation, provided the hub supports all endpoints correctly | Gang spacing, plate format, and box depth are especially important across regional standards | Measure the wall box and confirm the required number of live, load, and neutral terminals |
| 5 | Zigbee Dimmer Wall Switch | Dimmable LED, incandescent, or compatible low-voltage lighting | Voltage and wattage vary widely; dimmer ratings are often lower than relay ratings | Usually required | On/off plus brightness adjustment | Requires compatible Zigbee dimming commands and a hub that exposes brightness control | Lighting compatibility matters more than nominal voltage; dimming behavior differs by lamp and driver | Check trailing-edge or leading-edge method, minimum wattage, maximum LED load, and flicker performance |
| 6 | Scene-Control Wall Switch | Smart-home scenes, central-off functions, and multi-room automation | Often battery-powered or electrically powered without directly switching the load | Not applicable or optional | Single, double, or long-press scene commands | May act as a Zigbee input device rather than a mains relay; pairing and binding support are important | Useful in mixed lighting systems and retrofit installations where the existing circuit must remain unchanged | Confirm whether it controls a relay directly or only sends commands to other Zigbee devices |
| 7 | Zigbee Relay with Dry-Contact Output | Boilers, gates, contactors, and control circuits requiring electrical isolation | Output rating depends on the relay; the controlled circuit may differ from the device supply | Depends on design | Wall-mounted control button with isolated relay contacts | Best suited to installations where an automation hub manages a non-lighting load | Electrical separation, enclosure requirements, and local regulations are more important than faceplate style | Verify contact voltage, current, isolation rating, and whether the load is inductive |
| 8 | Battery-Powered Wireless Wall Switch | Rental properties, extensions, and locations without accessible wiring | No direct mains load switching; battery and electronics determine operating life | Not required | Wireless button or rocker control | Battery life depends on press frequency, reporting behavior, temperature, and network conditions | Can be installed without mains wiring, but it normally requires a separate Zigbee relay or smart lamp | Check battery type, replacement access, mounting method, and compatibility with the chosen hub |
| 9 | Zigbee Fan and Light Wall Controller | Bedrooms, bathrooms, and rooms with separate fan and light circuits | Load ratings differ for motor, lighting, and combined operation; motor loads need special attention | Usually required | Separate fan-speed, fan-power, and light controls | May expose several endpoints, so hub support for fan-control functions should be confirmed | Regional fan wiring, motor type, and wall-box dimensions can differ significantly | Check motor compatibility, speed-control method, neutral availability, and independent channel limits |
| 10 | Premium Glass or Metal-Finish Multi-Scene Switch | Design-led homes, hospitality interiors, and visible feature walls | May be a relay, dimmer, or scene controller; electrical ratings depend on the internal design | Model-dependent | Touch, capacitive, or tactile controls with scene support | Decorative materials can affect installation space and user experience, while Zigbee performance still depends on mesh placement | Confirm plate size, mounting standard, tactile feedback, temperature range, and certification for the target market | Prioritize safety certification, serviceability, and hub interoperability over appearance alone |
