Szenario:  
in my bath i have a typical thermostat which controls a valve in my cellar.  
Technically the thermostat is switching an 220v output on/off, this opens/closes the valve.

I would like to let everything as is, but want to be able to completly deactivate the activation of the valve.

My idea was to use a smart implant and connect the 220v line (brown) to out1.

Is this the correct idea?

“Maximum voltage on outputs 30V DC / 20V AC”

So no, that’s not the correct idea. ~~Also, the implant switches between the _inputs_ (IN1/IN2) and the outputs (OUT1/OUT2).\</s\<~~

i’m not switching 220v, im only interrupting the line. i could also interrupt the blue line

i know, this is forbidden in germany 🙂

any other way to achieve what i want? i do have shelly1 and shelly+1 and some fibaro switches as well…  
I’m just struggling with the fact, that the input i get is already switched and not constant…

Yes you really do switch 220V  
Interrupting 220V = switching 220V

When the max. Voltages Robert mentioned are exceeded, implant will probably die.

To switch the 220V line, you’ll better use a switch which can handle 220V  
For example Fibaro Smart Module FGS 214

I guess I don’t know what the difference is between “switching” and “interrupting” 🤷🏼‍♂️ I’m quoting the manual that states the maximum voltages on the outputs, but feel free to try out putting 220V on them.

ok, so with a shelly+1 it could look like that?

 ![2024-12-04 16_15_11-Präsentation1 - PowerPoint](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/6/3/63b80602cbced807ffcc04d26fe56fa84648b145.jpeg)

- some flows to control the valve when switch is on/off

Yes, this one can switch 220VAC.

I do have some questions though  
What switch is used with the thermostat ? Is it a “dry contact”, or does it output 230V?

What thermostat is it btw?  
I don’t know of thermostats powered by 220V, but that could be me.

It’s a jung tr ud 231

Ah, we learn every day 😉

The connector (24) can be used to connect an external sensor.  
It is not a switch output.

I don’t understand (yet) with which connector the valve is connected at the moment;

Is it connected as ‘17’ ? Is that the valve?

Yes 17 is the valve.

Fun fact: normally JUNG instructions are very accurate but in this case 17 is not explained.

I see.  
I’m still unsure how it works.  
The symbols are not clear to me.

Just being careful, because it’s about 220V.  
So,  
L = live  
N = neutral  
But what does the arrow stand for:

</div>

i guess the arrow stands for “switched output”, actually it’s what it does.  
I realized my target with a shelly 1 according to this picture:
