IKEA TRETAKT (EU): what it works with
IKEA · model TRETAKT · sold in EU
On its own, IKEA TRETAKT only pairs with an IKEA remote or motion sensor. Add a DIRIGERA hub (or the older TRÅDFRI gateway) and it reaches Apple Home, Google Home and Alexa, either through IKEA's own links or DIRIGERA's Matter bridge, which is also how Home Assistant's Matter integration sees it. The plug itself is Zigbee, not Matter. This EU version is rated 3680 W for resistive loads but only 300 W for motors, and IKEA doesn't mention energy metering.

“Via Matter” means you add it with that platform's Matter controller instead of a brand skill or app. “Unconfirmed” means we couldn't find an official source either way. How we verify.
Specs that matter for setup
- Local control
- Unconfirmed
- Energy monitoring
- Unconfirmed
- Radio: IKEA's product page does not name the radio. The CSA lists TRETAKT Smart Plug as Zigbee 3.0 certified (listing does not name the regional variant); Zigbee2MQTT lists it as E22x4 (E2204 EU).
- Hub: DIRIGERA (or the older TRÅDFRI gateway) is needed for app, voice and ecosystem control. Without a hub it can still be paired directly to an IKEA remote or motion sensor.
- Local control: No official statement on local control found.
- Energy monitoring: IKEA's listings and manual found do not mention energy metering, but no source says explicitly that it is absent.
- Max load: 3680 W resistive load; the manual limits motor loads to 300 W. The US TRETAKT is rated 1800 W.
