How zPLC Power Line Communication Works
An app or voice command reaches the zPLC switch through Matter, or a command arrives from NLC / BMS controls. The switch is the gateway for its whole circuit.
The switch chip places the command on the power line as a data signal, riding alongside the electricity already in the wiring.
The zPLC chip in each connected device reads the signal and carries out the command, whether that is switching, dimming, adjusting a setting or running a schedule.
