Device Identification

  • Device name: Shelly Plus 1
  • Device model: SNSW-001X16EU
  • Device SSID: ShellyPlus1-XXXXXX

Short Description

The Shelly Plus 1 is a compact smart switch with potential-free contacts, enabling remote control of electrical appliances via smartphone, tablet, PC, or home automation systems. It operates standalone on a local Wi-Fi network or integrates with cloud-based home automation services.

Users can access, control, and monitor the device remotely from any location with internet connectivity, provided the device is connected to a Wi-Fi router and the Internet.

Designed for space-constrained environments, it can be retrofitted into standard electrical wall boxes, behind power outlets, light switches, or other tight spaces.

The device features an embedded web interface for monitoring, control, and configuration.
