Wiring your Zigbee dimmer or switch

Most UK homes have 2-wire lighting circuits (no neutral at the switch). All Samotech Zigbee products work with both configurations.

2-wire (no neutral) — most UK homes

Without neutral wire

The module draws a small trickle current to power its electronics. No rewiring needed — swap your existing switch.

  • LLive wire (brown or red)
  • L OUTSwitched live to light fitting
  • COMBridge L and COM with a short link
3-wire (with neutral) — newer UK homes

With neutral wire

Connecting the neutral improves stability at very low LED wattages and removes the need for a bypass capacitor.

  • LLive wire (brown or red)
  • NNeutral wire (blue or black)
  • L OUTSwitched live to light fitting

Important: Always isolate the circuit at the consumer unit before working on electrical wiring. Consult a qualified electrician if unsure. All Samotech modules are designed for installation in accordance with UK wiring regulations (BS 7671).

Zigbee dimmers & switches — FAQ

Do Samotech Zigbee modules need a neutral wire?

No. All SM-series dimmers and switches work without a neutral wire, making them compatible with the majority of UK homes which use 2-wire lighting circuits.

Which smart home platforms are compatible?

Home Assistant (ZHA and Zigbee2MQTT), Philips Hue Bridge, Samsung SmartThings, Amazon Echo (4th gen+), Hubitat Elevation, Tuya/Smart Life, and any Zigbee 3.0-compatible gateway. Apple HomeKit is supported via Home Assistant or a compatible Hue bridge.

What is the difference between a dimmer module and a switch module?

A dimmer module (SM323, SM309-S) adjusts light brightness from 0–100% and requires dimmable LED, halogen or incandescent bulbs. A switch module (SM308-S, SM308-2CH) provides on/off control only but works with any bulb type including non-dimmable LEDs and smart bulbs.

Can I use these in a 2-way lighting circuit?

Yes. The SM323, SM309-S, SM308-S all support 2-way wiring. The Samotech module replaces one switch; the second position uses a standard retractive or toggle switch.

What is the difference between SM-series and the Tuya inline modules?

SM-series modules (SM308, SM309, SM323) are Samotech’s products with dedicated UK support and the widest platform compatibility. The Tuya inline modules are budget-friendly third-party Tuya hardware sold by Samotech – they work well with Tuya/Smart Life and Home Assistant but may have fewer advanced features.

Do I need a Zigbee hub?

Yes. Compatible hubs include Philips Hue Bridge, Amazon Echo 4th gen+, a Home Assistant server with a USB Zigbee coordinator, Hubitat Elevation, and Samsung SmartThings hub.

How long has Samotech been making Zigbee products?

Since 2020, Samotech has been developing Zigbee products – making it one of the longer-established Zigbee brands in the UK, with years of real-world installations behind every product.
