- Overheat and Overload⑤ Protection: The Light Switch H2 EU enhances home safety with automatic protection features, it monitors temperature and current levels, cutting off the circuit if it detects overheating or electrical overloads. This proactive protection prevents potential device damage and provides users peace of mind.
