  1. Just #disassembled a #smarthome #tasmota #smartplug, the Refoss P11. I bought 4 for ~43€ incl. shipping. Thats ~11€ shipped per unit for a factory flashed Tasmota device with power measurement and switching capability.

    Protective earth is connected with AWG24 =~0,205mm², but resistance is low/ok. The input pins are directly soldered to the PCB.

    Temperature sensor and power meter need to be manually calibrated to show reasonable values. ESP module pinout: search for tywe2s / esp-02s.

    Lots of vias in the traces that carry mains voltage/current.
    The input MOV got VDE printed on it. Capacitors are SAX branded. Relais is wrg rj-ss-105dm63-f, which got a datasheet with reasonable content. Contact spec in the datasheet lists 10A resistive, not 16A as printed on the relais/device.

    #electricians #electronics #electronicengineer is 0,205mm² ok for protective earth connection?
