Shelly 1PM Gen4 – Smart Switching with Real-Time Energy Monitoring
Take intelligent control of your electrical devices while keeping track of exactly how much energy they consume with the Shelly 1PM Gen4.
This compact 16A smart switch with built-in power monitoring combines remote switching, detailed energy measurement, advanced automation and four wireless technologies in a single device.
With support for Wi-Fi, Zigbee, Matter and Bluetooth, the Shelly 1PM Gen4 provides exceptional flexibility for modern smart homes and advanced automation systems.
Whether you’re automating lighting, monitoring a geyser, controlling a pump or tracking the electricity consumption of an appliance, the Shelly 1PM Gen4 gives you both smart control and actionable energy data.
16A Smart Relay for Lights & Appliances
The Shelly 1PM Gen4 supports loads up to 16A at 240V AC, making it suitable for a wide range of household and commercial applications.
Use it to control:
- Lights
- Fans
- Geysers and water heaters
- Pumps
- Heating equipment
- Kitchen appliances
- Pool equipment
- Small machinery
- Other compatible electrical loads
Its compact design makes it ideal for retrofitting smart control into existing electrical installations.
Real-Time Energy Monitoring
The key advantage of the 1PM is its integrated power measurement capability.
Monitor your connected equipment in real time and understand where your electricity is being used.
The Shelly 1PM Gen4 measures:
- Voltage
- Current
- Power consumption
- Energy usage
This allows you to identify energy-hungry appliances, monitor individual circuits and create automations based on actual electricity consumption.
For example:
Geyser power drops → Heating cycle completed
Appliance starts consuming power → Send notification
Power consumption exceeds threshold → Switch off load
Solar surplus available → Activate compatible load
This transforms your smart switch from a simple remote-control device into an intelligent energy management tool.
Four Connectivity Options in One Device
The Shelly 1PM Gen4 supports Wi-Fi, Zigbee, Matter and Bluetooth, giving you the flexibility to choose how it fits into your smart home.
Wi-Fi
Connect directly to your existing 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi network without requiring a dedicated hub.
Zigbee
Integrate the device into a compatible Zigbee network for reliable, low-latency smart home control.
Matter
Use Matter for broad interoperability with compatible smart home platforms and controllers.
Bluetooth
Bluetooth enables convenient setup and allows the Shelly 1PM Gen4 to operate as a Bluetooth gateway for compatible devices.
Good to know: The Shelly 1PM Gen4 ships in Matter mode by default. Switching to Zigbee mode (via a simple button sequence) disables Matter. Wi-Fi and Bluetooth stay active either way
Matter Smart Home Compatible
Matter makes it easier to integrate smart devices from different manufacturers into the same ecosystem.
The Shelly 1PM Gen4 can work with compatible platforms including:
- Apple Home
- Google Home
- Amazon Alexa
- Samsung SmartThings
- Home Assistant
- Other Matter-compatible ecosystems
This makes the Gen4 a strong choice for customers who want flexibility rather than being locked into a single smart home platform.
Excellent for Home Assistant
The Shelly 1PM Gen4 is particularly well suited to Home Assistant.
Combine switching and energy measurements to create sophisticated local automations and energy dashboards.
For example:
Smart Geyser Automation
Monitor geyser power consumption and automatically control heating based on schedules, electricity tariffs or solar availability.
Appliance Monitoring
Track the electricity usage of individual appliances without installing a full-house energy monitor.
Solar Automation
Use power measurements as triggers for automations based on available solar generation.
Smart Lighting
Automatically switch lights based on occupancy, time of day or other sensors.
No Hub Required for Wi-Fi
For Wi-Fi installations, the Shelly 1PM Gen4 connects directly to your local network.
You can control it using the Shelly Smart Control app, local network interfaces, supported smart home platforms or cloud services.
No dedicated hub is required for standard Wi-Fi operation.
This makes it easy to add smart control and energy monitoring to an existing home.
Compact Retrofit Design
The Shelly 1PM Gen4 measures only:
37 × 42 × 16 mm
Its compact enclosure allows it to fit into many existing electrical installations, including suitable wall boxes and spaces behind switches and sockets.
This makes it particularly useful for smart home retrofits, where replacing existing switches or installing additional equipment may not be desirable.
Advanced Energy & Safety Features
The Shelly 1PM Gen4 provides more than simple remote switching.
Built-in protection features include:
- Overtemperature protection
- Overvoltage protection
- Overcurrent protection
- Overpower protection
You can also configure automation and protection thresholds based on measured electrical parameters.
This provides greater control over both your devices and their energy consumption.
Advanced Smart Automation
For advanced users, the Shelly 1PM Gen4 provides extensive automation capabilities.
Features include:
- Schedules
- Smart scenes
- Local actions
- Webhooks
- MQTT
- WebSockets
- HTTPS
- mJS scripting
- KNXnet/IP
- Virtual components
This makes it suitable for everything from simple scheduled lighting to sophisticated Home Assistant energy management systems.
Zigbee Router & Bluetooth Gateway
The Shelly 1PM Gen4 can also contribute to your wider smart home network.
When used with the appropriate protocols, it can function as:
- Zigbee router – helping extend your Zigbee mesh
- Bluetooth gateway – connecting compatible Bluetooth devices
This means a single installed relay can provide additional value beyond controlling its connected load.

The Shelly 1PM Gen4 is particularly useful for:
💡 Smart Lighting
Control lights remotely and monitor their energy consumption.
🚿 Geyser & Water Heater Monitoring
Track heating cycles and electricity consumption while automating operation.
⚡ Appliance Monitoring
Measure how much energy individual appliances use.
🏊 Pool Pumps
