Smart Wall Outlets & Plugs
Simple Smart Home Upgrades With App-Controlled Power Management
Smart outlets and plugs are a convenient way to bring automation and remote control to devices that are not inherently smart. Wall outlets replace your existing receptacles for a built-in solution, while plug-in smart plugs add smart features without any installation.
Both options allow you to turn devices on or off, set schedules, group items together, or monitor energy usage from your smart home platform. This makes it easier to manage small appliances, lighting, and electronics throughout your home.
Remote On/Off Control
Smart outlets and plugs let you turn lamps, fans, and small appliances on or off from your phone or through a connected platform. This helps you control hard-to-reach devices more easily.
Energy Monitoring On Select Models
Many smart plugs include built-in energy tracking tools that show real-time and historical power usage. This can help you identify high-consumption devices and optimize your energy habits.
App, Voice, & Automation Support
Smart outlets and plugs integrate with major smart home platforms to support schedules, scenes, voice commands, and automation triggers like time, motion, or occupancy.
Easy Installation Or Plug-In Design
Wall outlets require a simple swap at the electrical box, while smart plugs operate instantly by plugging into any standard outlet. Both options keep your devices connected without complicated setup.
Compact Designs For Better Access
Most smart plugs offer low-profile designs that avoid blocking adjacent sockets. This helps maintain full use of outlet space even when using multiple smart devices.

Some smart wall outlets allow independent control of each socket, while others treat both as a single switch. Capabilities vary by model.
Do smart plugs work with high-power appliances?
Most smart plugs are designed for smaller appliances such as lamps, fans, and electronics. High-power devices like heaters or microwaves may exceed supported wattage ratings.
Do smart outlets and plugs require a hub?
Wi-Fi models usually work without a hub, while Zigbee, Z-Wave, or Matter-enabled options may require a compatible hub or bridge depending on the ecosystem.
