Voice responsive in-wall devices are provided. In one example implementation, a power switch includes a housing mountable on or at least partially within a surface. The housing can have a front panel. The power switch can include an interface element disposed on the front panel and operable to receive a user input. The power switch can include a power interrupter operable to control power delivery to the powered load based at least in part on interaction with the interface element. The power switch can include one or more microphones operable to obtain audio input. The power switch can include one or more speakers configured to provide audio output. The power switch can include a communications interface operable to communicate data associated with the audio input over a communication link.

A leakage current protection device with an illumination function, including a shell, a movement assembly in the shell, power input and output assemblies coupled to the movement assembly, and an illumination assembly disposed inside the shell, which includes: an illumination control board electrically coupled to the power input or output assembly; a sensing unit coupled to the illumination control board and configured to sense an ambient condition outside the shell to generate a sensing output signal; a light emitting unit coupled to the control board, and controlled by the control board to turn on or off in response to the sensing output signal; and a light guide unit, formed by an operating element partially protruding out of the shell and disposed adjacent the light emitting unit, configured to guide the illumination light emitted by the light emitting unit out of the shell. The device is convenient to use and compact.

An electrical switch responds to acoustic inputs. A microphone integrated into the electrical switch generates electrical signals in response to the acoustic inputs. A network interface integrated into the electrical switch provides addressable communication with controllers, computers, and other networked devices. The electrical switch may thus be installed or retrofitted into the electrical wiring of all homes and businesses. Users may thus speak voice commands, which are received by the electrical switch and sent for voice control of appliances and other automation tasks.
