Smart Panel & Energy Monitoring
See real-time energy use on your phone. Track circuits, cut waste, and stop guessing what's on your bill.
A smart panel replaces or sits on top of your breaker panel—and gives you an app instead of a guess.
With a standard panel you see breakers and that's it. A smart panel keeps the same job—distributing power to your circuits—but adds monitoring and often control. You get an app that shows you which circuits are drawing what, in real time. So you can see when the AC kicks in, how much the EV charger is pulling, or what's still on when you leave.
Most people get one when they add solar or a battery and want to see production vs. consumption. Others just want to know where the power goes so they can trim waste and avoid bill surprises. We install smart panels that work with your existing setup and with what you add later.
What you get
One panel, one app—no extra hubs or clip-on sensors.
Real-time view of every circuit in the app—see watts and amps, not just on/off.
Names for each circuit so you know what's what (we label them at install).
Works with solar and batteries so you see production, consumption, and grid flow in one place.
Optional remote control: turn circuits on or off from your phone when the panel supports it.
How it's different from a regular panel
Regular panel
- —You see the main breaker and a row of switches.
- —No idea which circuit is pulling what until something trips.
- —To shut off one circuit you flip the breaker by hand.
Smart panel
- —You see every circuit by name and real-time draw in an app.
- —You can spot the AC or the dryer before you get the bill.
- —Turn circuits on or off from your phone; some panels do it automatically.
How we install it
We mount the smart panel in place of your existing panel or alongside it, depending on the product and your layout. We move your circuits over, connect the monitoring and communication wiring, and get everything permitted and inspected. You download the app, create an account, and we walk you through naming circuits so the display makes sense. After that you're watching real-time usage from your phone. If you add solar or a battery later, we tie that into the same system so one app shows the whole picture.
What it does for you
Circuit-level visibility
The app shows you which circuits are using power right now. That's how you find the old freezer in the garage or the always-on TV and decide what to turn off or replace.
Works with solar and batteries
When we add solar or a battery, the smart panel can see production and consumption together. You get one place to see what you're making, what you're using, and what's going to or from the grid.
Controllable circuits
Depending on the panel, you can turn circuits off from the app—handy when you're away or when you want to cap EV charging. Some setups can shed load automatically to avoid demand spikes.
One system, one app
No separate dongles or clip-on monitors. The smart panel is the panel. We wire it once, you use the app for as long as you're in the house.
We wire the smart panel to your circuits so the app shows accurate, circuit-level data.
