Shelly Plug M Gen3 Black (pack of 4 sockets) – Smart Wi-Fi and Bluetooth socket, energy monitoring, Shelly chip processor, local control and automations, 16A

The Shelly Plug M Gen3 is the latest generation of compact smart sockets from Shelly, specially designed to transform traditional household appliances into smart devices, whilst offering ultra-precise monitoring of energy consumption. Equipped with the new Shelly chip processor, 8 MB of expanded memory and support for Matter (via update), this socket offers instant response times and exceptional stability. Its unique hybrid design (compatible with the M standard / Italian type and Schuko) makes it ideal for optimising space and effectively managing electricity costs.

Key Benefits

• Cutting-edge Gen3 Technology: Equipped with Shelly’s new proprietary processor and 8 MB of flash memory, the socket guarantees smooth operation, secure updates and the ability to run complex scripts directly on the device (local scripting), without relying on the cloud.

• Precise Consumption Monitoring: Monitors electricity consumption in real time (W, kWh, voltage and current). The Shelly Smart Control app generates detailed graphs that help you identify ‘energy vampires’ and reduce your bills.

• Dual Wi-Fi & Bluetooth Connectivity: Connects directly to your 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi network, without the need for an additional hub. The built-in Bluetooth enables ultra-fast initial setup (in just a few seconds) and can act as a Bluetooth gateway for other Shelly sensors in your home.

• Local Control and Enhanced Security: The socket can operate exclusively on the local area network (LAN), offering maximum data privacy and response times of under 50 ms, even when the internet connection is down.

• Smart Schedules and Scenarios: Create customised weekly schedules, timers or scenarios based on sunrise/sunset times. For example, you can automatically switch off your laptop charger after 3 hours or turn on the boiler only during off-peak energy tariff periods.

• Advanced Safety and Protection: Includes triple internal protection: against power surges, overcurrent (supports loads of up to 16A / 3500W) and overheating, automatically cutting off the power supply in the event of a fault to protect your home.

Examples of Use

1. Climate Control: Connect an electric heater or a portable air conditioner and programme it to switch on 30 minutes before you get home.

2. Kitchen Automation: Set your espresso machine to preheat automatically every morning at 7.00 am, on weekdays only.

3. Overload Protection: Monitor your washing machine and set up a smart alert or automatic power cut-off if power consumption exceeds your electrical circuit’s safety threshold.
