277VAC Z-Wave Light Switch

[GadgetGuy]

I should have been more clear that these were not Vizia RF (Z-Wave). I was just making a point that Leviton has 277VAC commercial products. It might be just a matter of time before these are Z-Wave enabled.
 
With regard to my initial question, I only need a switch (not a dimmer) with remote capability. Z-Wave would be preferred, but is not really a requirement.

What about Insteon? Looks like SmartLabs supports 277VAC:

Thank you very much for the recommendation. This is exactly the type of switch I'm looking for, but there are 2 potential problems:
 
1) Insteon (to my knowledge) is not supported on the OmniPro II.
2) Power line transmission to the 277VAC lighting circuit will probably be an issue.

Yeah not sure you will find something to meet your needs. Since it's a commercial install, probably metal boxes so Z-Wave is likely to be very ineffective (I can't speak from experience, as my handful of z-wave devices are locks and plug in modules). Insteon is probably the best choice overall for your situation since it's the only dual-band product on the market (I believe), but your OP2 requirement locks you out since it only supports X-10 and Insteon devices no longer have X-10 compatibility.
 
DEL is right in that 277V is too uncommon for the consumer-oriented automation protocols, you'll likely have to look at something higher up the scale (which is probably not very cost-effective for you)

I use Z-wave in my 3 industrial buildings and works great for all my 110v offices/environments. The only bummer is most our warehouse lights are 208 or 277v. They are LED, so wattage isn't a issue. I just wish Z-wave had a up to 277v switch and I'd buy 30 of them!
 
And whoever says Z-wave isn't for industrial usage is crazy. it works GREAT for industrial usages. Just get used to bridging Vera units. We have 40,000 metal building with metal dividing walls. Just took 1 vera unit per section, so we got 4 bridged vera's and 1 master vera. Works great. Just need up to 277v switches bad!!
 
I even looked at manufactures in China to try and make some, but haven't found much. Desperate for 208-277 switches!

This seems to do what you want.  I was surprised to find it on Amazon after this discussion.  There are 2 and 1 relay versions.

This looks like a good solution, but it doesn't appear to be UL listed.

It seems not to show in the listing, but one of the questions says:
 
Question:


UL Listed is stated in the description, but two revievers say this is a code violation (small gauge triggers)?




Answer:
Stranded wire can carry more current than solid wire with the same wire gauge. 18 gauge wire can carry 10 amps up to 7.5 feet.

So I'm not sure what the true story is.
 
edit:  Actually, it says UL Certification in the details.  I don't see a UL stamp in the close up photo of the product, although I do see a CSA stamp, which is  good sign.

This product does appear in UL's database, so I'd say yes, it is UL Listed.

Thanks for the confirmation. The manufacturer's site indicates that it is UL listed. http://enerwaveautomation.com/products/zwnrsm1s
I just wish they had 277V compatibility in their switches as well. It would make for an easier install.

After additional research, I found a wireless 120V/277V switch from Leviton (p/n ZSS10-N0Z). It's one of the Lumina RF devices used with their Lumina Gateway. Nowhere in their documentation does it indicate that it's a ZigBee switch, but it is. We installed a ZigBee Interface Module (ZIM) on our OmniPro II and paired the switches. Works great!
