Anthony Spierings –
Before you purchase and install this device, it is worth reading some important detail buried in wiring diagram in the specification sheet. It shows that the power supply to the Shelly unit requires a dedicated 2A protection device (e.g. fuse or circuit breaker). Keep in mind that the 2A protective device must also be rated to successfully interrupt the fault level at the point of installation. For example, if the Shelly EM Gen3 Wi-Fi Energy Meter is installed in a switchboard, then the prospective current is normally in the 1-2kA range. A 2A fuse from the local electronics store will not suffice. Best option would be a CLIPSAL MX9MC102 2AMP SINGLE POLE CIRCUIT BREAKER 6KA or a HAGER NT102C 2 AMP SINGLE POLE 10KA CIRCUIT BREAKER or similar. A 2A circuit breaker itself is not expensive (around $12). But it can be difficult to source as most electrical wholesalers do not carry these due to lack of demand, and is often a special order. This will add cost and complexity to your Shelly EM installation. The installation manual for some of the other Shelly devices do not have a requirement for an upstream 2A protective device. Whether this is an omission in the installation manual or the other devices don’t need the 2A protective device is hard to say.
