Measure power in real time and turn things on and off remotely

  • Sends a real time reading of power consumed every 1 second to Enistic Energy Manager
  • To fit: cut an existing mains wire and then wire both ends into this unit
  • Flexible module for measuring and controlling individual appliances / circuits
  • Allows you to see energy consumed by any connected appliance / circuit
  • Remotely controllable by Enistic Energy Manager to allow it to switch on and off

The Smart Socket (Back Box) is an Appliance Level Smart Meter and Control System that is designed to be wired inline into an existing appliance. To fit it, wire the wires of the unit to the equipment you wish to control.  The white wires can be connected to a mains switch for local control, such as a light switch. It is designed to be used as part of a Enistic system and is ideally suited for use within an office environment. This will send information to the Enistic Energy Manager about how much energy is being consuming every second so you can track how much is consuming every second / minute / day / month / year.

It features:

  • Report of the power being consumed to the nearest 0.1W every 1 second (or slower if so configured) to Enistic Energy Manager
  • Local control - simply press the red button to switch the unit on and off
  • Controllable (on and off) from the Energy Manager to automatically shut your devices down remotely
  • 13A maximum with surge protection
  • Encrypted communications for secure operation
  • Mesh networking for excellent range
  • Unique serial number embedded in each product for identification on network
