Smappee will soon become part of your life. You will automatically become more conscious of how you use energy, which will contribute to a better environment for us all. Not only for us, but also for the following generations! And that might just be the biggest benefit of all.
Smappee cloud and the App. Then, the Smappee monitor is installed near to the fuse box. The sensors (current clamps) are connected to particular wires in or near the fuse box, so that Smappee can measure the energy consumption of your home.

This section shows how to connect the Smappee to your Wi-Fi network. Keep your Wi-Fi password secure Security is important for Smappee. Therefore, the Smappee app securely transfers the password of your Wi-Fi network to the Smappee Energy monitor, so that it can connect to your Wi-Fi network How it works A new Smappee Energy monitor opens a temporary ad-hoc Wi-Fi network.
Occasionally found in Denmark and Belgium only Split phase US Most common type in the US and Canada. If you are still unsure, please see the additional information on the next page. (Solar) Energy Monitor Installation Manual Page 7 of 36...
This chapter describes how to connect the Smappee monitor to your fuse box. Remember! Before you can connect the Smappee monitor to the fuse box you must first connect it to your Wi-Fi network as described in the previous chapters.
