Shelly Bypass for no neutral installations
Shelly bypass is used in no neutral installations compatible with the Shelly 1L and Shelly Dimmer 2 to enable low wattage applications to function correctly.
With the recent introduction of the Shelly 1L to the Shelly Home Automation range, you may have noticed an add-on which is available specifically with the Shelly 1L called a Shelly Bypass. We sell the Shelly Bypass in the store as a standalone product or as an add-on with any Shelly 1L or Shelly Dimmer 2 devices, but what actually are they and do you need one?
The great thing with both the Shelly 1L and Shelly Dimmer 2 is they work without the need of a neutral line. That’s great news for us here in the UK if you are wanting to add a Shelly device behind a light switch, where typically we do not have a neutral wire.
Active compensator for LED lighting. It is used when connecting small loads without a neutral /zero/.
