Fibaro Single Switch 2 (FGS-213)
- Z-Wave
Verified September 2026
A no-frills Z-Wave Plus (EU 868MHz) relay with power metering for a single on/off load — think an outbuilding light or an extractor fan you want on HA without a dimmer curve to worry about. At 42.5 x 38.3 x 20.3mm it's small enough for almost any UK back box, but it's still a 3-wire install, so it needs a neutral. Being mains-powered and Z-Wave Plus, it also acts as a mesh repeater, strengthening range for battery devices elsewhere in the house. Stock has gone patchy: Vesternet showed it unavailable at last check, so buy from Amazon UK or EasyGates Direct if you see it in stock rather than waiting on Vesternet.
In Home Assistant
| Control | Type | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Relay | Switch | Single on/off output driving the load. |
| Power | Sensor (W) | Instantaneous active power; unsolicited reports fire on a percentage-change threshold with a minimum gap, plus a forced periodic report. |
| Energy | Sensor (kWh) | Cumulative consumption from the same metering IC; threshold-triggered and periodically pushed, resettable via a service call. |
| Input 1 | Config | Terminal wired to the physical load switch; a config parameter sets momentary vs toggle behaviour, and a bitmask controls which press patterns generate Central Scene notifications alongside the association-driven on/off. |
| Input 2 | Config (scene controller) | Second input terminal with no relay attached, so it can be repurposed as a free-standing momentary button whose presses drive Central Scene events only — a way to get an extra HA automation trigger without consuming another Z-Wave device slot. |
Z-Wave JS exposes two physical input terminals even though the module drives only one relay channel — the first is normally bonded to the load switch via association groups, but the second has no output to control and can instead be wired to a spare momentary button purely as a Central Scene source, with a config parameter gating which press patterns actually fire as scene events versus plain association messages. Power and energy reporting are independently tunable: one parameter sets the percentage change that triggers an unsolicited power report, another throttles those to a minimum interval, and a matching pair does the equivalent for cumulative energy plus a forced push on a timer. Switch type defaults to toggle (relay mirrors switch state), which desyncs the relay from a physical button if you wire in a momentary/retractive switch without changing it.
