SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC SOCKET PLUG WISER 16A

This is a 16-amp smart plug that turns any regular wall socket into a remotely controlled outlet. It is part of the Schneider Electric Wiser ecosystem, built for practical home automation without complicated setup.

What it does for you

• Control lamps, heaters, fans, or any device up to 16 A from your phone via the Wiser Home app, or by voice with Alexa or Google Assistant.
• Monitor energy consumption in real time and see historical data to spot power-hungry appliances and cut your electricity bill.
• Set schedules or timers so your coffee maker starts in the morning, lights turn on at dusk, or holiday lights follow a pattern.
• Use the manual button on the plug for local on/off even if your network is down.

Who it suits

Homeowners building a smart home, renters who can't rewire, and anyone who wants to automate everyday devices without changing their appliances. It is especially useful for home offices, living rooms, and kitchens.

How to use it

Plug it into a standard Schuko socket. Pair it with the Wiser Home app (requires a Wiser Home hub, sold separately). Then you can control it from anywhere, set schedules, or link it to your voice assistant. No tools needed.

Tip: Use the energy monitoring to check which devices are drawing power in standby mode – you might be surprised at what's costing you money. And remember, the hub is required for remote and voice control, so plan for that.
