The future of home energy management is smart electrical panels but how do they work and how do you know if you need one?

Solar Surge CEO, Joe Ordia, is here to break down the features, benefits, and function of these modern electric panels transforming how we use energy.

What are Smart Electrical Panels?

Smart electrical panels are revolutionizing home energy management by offering robust features that enhance visibility and control over electricity consumption.

Defined as Internet-connected, software-controlled circuit breaker panels, these systems incorporate current sensors (CT) and relays in each circuit, allowing homeowners to monitor real-time and historical energy usage.

What Sizes of Smart Electrical Panels Are Available?

Available in various sizes—from 16 to 48 circuits—smart panels can be tailored to meet the unique energy demands of any home.

They seamlessly integrate with solar panels, battery systems, and HVAC systems, creating a cohesive home energy system. As the adoption of smart electrical panels increases, they are transforming how homeowners engage with their energy consumption, paving the way for a more efficient and sustainable future.

What are the Benefits of Smart Electrical Panels?

The key benefits of smart panels include providing insights into energy consumption, enabling users to manage their electricity use effectively, and extending battery runtime during power outages by prioritizing essential devices.

By allowing for programmable schedules, smart panels can help avoid high utility costs during peak pricing times, ultimately saving money and eliminating the need for costly service upgrades.

Understanding How Smart Electrical Panels Can Transform Your Home

Providing real-time visibility and control over your home’s energy consumption, smart panels put the power back in your hands so you can optimize your energy usage during peak billing hours, monitor energy flow through individual circuits, and even manage appliances remotely.
