Home Automation Wiring Plan Design

Title:
Home Automation & Electrical Wiring Design (Shelly) – Full Plan incl. Distribution Boards, Ethernet & Fiber

⸻

Description:
I am looking for an experienced home automation / domotique designer to create a complete electrical and low-voltage wiring plan for a residential renovation project in Switzerland.

The system will be based primarily on Shelly modules, with control via a mobile app (Shelly Cloud or Home Assistant).

This is a design-only role. Installation will be carried out by a separate contractor, so clarity and precision in the plans are critical.

⸻

Project Overview:
• Apartment split across two levels:
• Main floor (living areas)
• Basement (office + game room)
• Full renovation with new electrical installation

⸻

Electrical Setup:
• Two independent electrical connections, each with its own meter
• Each connection is 3-phase (3 × 25 A)
• New distribution boards (tableaux électriques) to be designed

⸻

Areas and Circuit Requirements:
• Living Room
• 3 lighting circuits
• 1 air conditioning circuit
• Corridor
• 2 lighting circuits
• Kitchen
• 2 lighting circuits
• Bedrooms (2)
• 3 lighting circuits (per bedroom)
• 1 air conditioning circuit (per bedroom)
• Bathrooms (2)
• 2 lighting circuits (per bathroom)
• 1 towel warmer circuit (per bathroom)
• Basement (Office + Game Room)
• 3 lighting circuits
• 1 air conditioning circuit
• Terrace
• 1 lighting circuit
• 1 fan circuit
• Garden
• 1 lighting circuit
• Cellar / Storage (Cave)
• 1 lighting circuit

⸻

Functions:
• Lighting (including dimming and scene control)
• Climate control (underfloor heating zones + air conditioning integration)

⸻

Low-Voltage / Network Requirements:
• Ethernet (RJ45) network throughout the apartment
• Connections for:
• TVs
• WiFi access points
• Home automation devices (relays, controllers)
• Fiber optic connection integration (main entry point + internal distribution if required)

⸻

Deliverables Required:
• Complete electrical wiring diagrams
• Distribution board design (for both electrical connections)
• Circuit / fuse allocation plan
• Switch wiring logic (push buttons preferred)
• Shelly module placement plan
• Lighting zoning strategy
• Climate control wiring (actuators, relays, thermostats)
• Low-voltage plan (Ethernet, TV, fiber)
• Basic network topology / WiFi coverage recommendation

⸻

Constraints:
• Renovation project (not new build)
• Limited space for false ceilings
• Must comply with Swiss electrical standards (NIBT)
• System should be reliable and future-proof

⸻

Preferred Skills:
• Experience in home automation design (Shelly, KNX, or similar)
• Strong electrical wiring knowledge (residential projects)
• Experience with network cabling (RJ45, fiber)
• Familiar with mobile app control systems (Shelly / Home Assistant)
• Ability to produce clear and detailed technical drawings

⸻

Application Requirements:
Please include:
• Portfolio of similar projects (electrical or smart home plans)
• Brief explanation of your approach
• Estimated timeline and pricing

⸻

Location:
Switzerland (remote work possible)

⸻

Additional Notes:
The designer should review and optimize the number of circuits where appropriate (grouping or splitting based on load, usability, and automation logic).

Experience working with multi-board / multi-supply systems is a strong advantage.
