    Smart Switch without Earth Terminal

    Hi, I've bought a "yagusmart" smart switch from Amazon and it has no earth terminal. Although there are no metal facing parts I would think the device itself still needs an earth?

    Wifi switch with volt free contacts.

    Anyone know of a decent (and cheap) WIFI switch powered by 230V AC, but with isolated switch contacts? I've used Sonoff BASIC R2 for a few things, but these only give a switched 230V output.
