Shelly PRO 1 or 1PM, 32 AMP circuit breaker ?

[SigAsg]

I would like to have 32A one phase CB for for my SAUNA. I could only see 16A SHELLY CB. Is there any plan to increase the the CB to 32A?

It is best to use a contactor for such loads.

The contactor is then switched with a Shelly. In this case, 16A is sufficient for the Shelly, or you can also use smaller Shellys.

If you switch a contactor with a Shelly, it can be useful to add an RC snubber here because the relay in the contactor is an inductive load.

Thanks for the response. Using a contactor switched with Shelly is a little more complicated and more expensive solution. I would like the solution to directly replace my current 32A sauna circuit breaker with Shelly 32A CB if it exists or it will be available later. Do you know if Shelly will provide 32A CB soon.

Only Shelly itself will be able to answer that question 😉

However, as the usual household applications normally go up to a maximum of 16A, I don't think this is particularly likely.

With loads greater than 16A, the strain on the hardware increases rapidly.
