I’m looking for a 220V AC (or 12V DC) Z-wave (or zigbee) relay that can switch 12V.  
Would appreciate some advice on this.

Thanks

Figaro z-wave relay, Shelly z-wave relay, both can be powered on 220VAC and switch whatever you feed the input, such as 12VDC.

You could use a relay switch that is marked as “potential free” or “zero volt contact” or “volt free”. As mentioned, Shelly and Fibaro have options, but there are more manufacturers that create zigbee, z-wave or even 433mHz options.
