Why This Exists

The Situation It Addresses

Most buyers do not want to rewire. They want the board they already have to become switchable and measurable. Because the smart devices keep the same DIN footprint and the same protection function as the conventional device they replace, a retrofit is a device swap rather than a redesign.

Process

How It Runs Step by Step

SurveySelectionSampleReplacementCommissioningHandover
  1. SurveyList the existing ways, ratings and pole widths in the board and note which circuits need remote control.
  2. SelectionMatch each way to a smart equivalent of the same rating and pole count, choosing RCBO models where earth leakage protection is required.
  3. SampleTake a small sample order of the selected models and pair them in the Tuya SmartLife app on a test board.
  4. ReplacementSwap the devices way by way on the same DIN rail with the supply isolated.
  5. CommissioningPair each device, name it by circuit, and set the timing or cycle rules needed.
  6. HandoverGroup devices by site in the app so one operator can see all boards.
Outcome

What You End Up With

The board keeps its original protection ratings and gains remote switching, scheduling and, on the metering models, per circuit energy data.

FAQ

Questions About This Solution

Does a retrofit need the board rewiring

No. The smart devices keep the same DIN rail footprint and the same protection function, so a retrofit is a device swap on the existing rail.

Will the board still be protected if the network fails

Yes. Overload, short circuit and residual current protection are mechanical and independent of the network.

How many devices can one app manage

Devices are grouped by site in the Tuya SmartLife app, so one operator can manage boards across several buildings.

Do we need the metering version

Only if you want per circuit energy data. If you only need switching, the standard smart models are cheaper.

Can we retrofit some ways and not others

Yes. Most projects convert only the circuits that need remote control and leave the rest conventional.

Scope This With Us

The board keeps its original protection ratings and gains remote switching, scheduling and, on the metering models, per circuit energy data.
