Nice HighLoad-Control: the Z-Wave module that turns a switch into a smart heating system

Nice expands its Smart Living range with HighLoad-Control, the new module for the remote control of high-power resistive loads up to 16 A, designed to make life easier for installers who need to manage appliances, water heaters and electric heating systems with a single compact device.

code NCE_HIGH LOAD-CONTROL

From a simple switch to a complete heating controller

HighLoad-Control fits into a standard wall box and controls a single resistive load up to 16 A, with no need for external contactors in most heating circuits. It can be controlled remotely via the Yubii Home app, or locally via a connected wall switch (momentary or toggle type), which the device automatically recognises during the guided setup procedure.

Its real strength, though, lies in its flexibility: the same module can work as a command switch for resistive loads, or — thanks to an external NTC sensor (accessory not included) — as a standalone thermostat for underfloor and room heating, with configurable setpoints and overheating protection.

Three operating modes for every need

• Switch mode — direct on/off control of any resistive load up to 16 A, ideal for boilers, stoves and high-power appliances, with full energy measurement.

• NTC thermostat mode — the module regulates the load via the NTC sensor, becoming a standalone floor or room thermostat that requires no hub logic: perfect for electric underfloor heating and electric radiators.

• Assisted thermostat mode — the controller sets the desired temperature while the NTC sensor prevents floor overheating, ensuring precise and safe comfort in whole-home heating scenarios.

Typical applications

• General on/off control at 16 A

• High-power resistive appliances

• Electric underfloor heating

• Electric radiators and towel warmers

• Water heaters / boilers

Key technical features

• Single-pole 16 A relay for resistive loads

• Three operating modes: switch, NTC thermostat, controller-assisted thermostat

• Compatible with any Z-Wave / Z-Wave Plus controller; also works as a repeater

• Built on the new Z-Wave 800 series chip, for extended range and faster communication with the gateway

• Secure S2 communication with AES-128 encryption

• Measurement of active power, energy (kWh) and mains voltage

• Support for an external NTC sensor (1–50 kΩ, β 2000–6000 K)

• Inputs for both momentary and toggle wall switches

• Built-in protection against overcurrent, overvoltage and overheating

• Configurable automatic shut-off timer

• IP20 protection rating, compact 45 x 36 x 23 mm dimensions

• Operating temperature 0–35 °C, radio frequency 868.4 or 869.8 MHz (EU)

Gateway compatibility

HighLoad-Control works with Nice's Yubii Home and Yubii Home Pro gateways, as well as Fibaro's Home Center 3 and Home Center 3 Lite, integrating seamlessly into the Yubii ecosystem — the platform that connects, simplifies and controls all home automations, from custom scenarios to control via smartphone or remote.

A compact, versatile and easy-to-configure product, ideal for installers and system integrators who want to offer their customers smart energy management and heating solutions in a single device.
