Legrand and CEA combine their expertise to develop a new generation wireless and batteryless switch
Legrand announces the launch of a new generation wireless and batteryless switch. This technological innovation was developed in collaboration with CEA, a major player in research, development and innovation.
Connected switches that are wireless, i.e. without any wired connection to the building’s electrical network, offer many advantages, such as facilitating the upgrading of an installation by enabling switches to be positioned freely without any renovation works. This innovation will allow wireless switches to operate without batteries thanks to an embedded energy harvesting mechanism.
Protected by three patents, this new “wireless and batteryless” technology is very easy to install and enables electrical devices such as lights or shutters to be controlled via the international radio communication standard, ZigBee.
