Answers to common questions about Smart Switch.
A: A smart switch is a hardwired device that replaces a standard wall switch. It connects directly to your electrical circuit and lets you control lighting, exhaust fans, and built-in appliances remotely via a mobile app. Unlike a smart socket, it does not plug into an outlet — it is installed into the wall or panel. Browse our smart switches for models.
A: A smart socket plugs into an existing outlet — you plug your appliance into it. No wiring required. A smart switch is hardwired into the wall or panel, replacing a standard switch to control the circuit itself. Sockets are ideal for plug-in devices like coffee machines and lamps. Switches are better for fixed devices like ceiling lights, exhaust fans, and built-in appliances.
A: If your device is hardwired — like ceiling lights, bathroom fans, or built-in heaters — a smart switch is the right choice. It gives you remote control and scheduling without needing an available outlet. For plug-in devices, a smart socket is simpler and requires no installation.
A: A smart switch helps you manage when power is used and for how long — especially for devices that are often left on accidentally, like lights and exhaust fans. By setting schedules or remote timers, you avoid unnecessary runtime. For a deeper look at how smart devices help reduce electricity costs at home, read our guide: How do smart sockets help reduce electricity costs at home? The same principles apply to smart switches.
A: Most standard smart switches do not include energy monitoring. If you need real-time power, kWh, and cost data, choose a smart socket with energy monitoring, or pair your smart switch with a power meter.
A: Ceiling lights, exhaust fans, bathroom heaters, outdoor lighting, and other hardwired fixtures. If you can replace a standard wall switch, you can install a smart switch. See our smart switches for models.
A: Yes. This is one of the most common uses. Set a schedule or use remote control to turn off lights and fans automatically — no more wondering if you left something on. Learn more about reducing waste: How do smart sockets help reduce electricity costs at home?
A: Yes. You can set a timer to run the fan for a fixed period after a shower, or schedule it during certain hours. This prevents the fan from running unnecessarily. Check the load capacity before installing.
A: If your device plugs into an outlet — like a coffee machine, lamp, or TV — choose a smart socket. It requires no wiring and can be moved easily. If your device is hardwired, choose a smart switch.
