How Square D QO Smart Panels Work

Intelligent power distribution that adapts to your needs in real-time

The Square D QO Smart Panel Solution transforms your traditional electrical panel into a dynamic, app-controlled energy management hub. Powered by the Schneider Energy Monitor and Square D Control Relays, it provides circuit-level visibility and AI-driven load management to optimize your home's power distribution.

STEP 1

Monitor Everything

The Schneider Energy Monitor tracks real-time power usage down to individual circuits. See exactly what's consuming energy via the Schneider Home app on your smartphone or tablet.

STEP 2

Smart Load Management

When demand approaches capacity, the AI-powered Smart Power Manager automatically sheds non-essential loads like pool pumps, protecting priorities like EV charging and HVAC.

STEP 3

Control From Anywhere

Adjust priorities, receive instant alerts, and optimize energy usage remotely through the intuitive app. Customize which circuits matter most to you and let the system handle the rest.

Why Electrical Panel Upgrades Are Essential

30-50% of U.S. homes need panel upgrades by 2025 to handle EVs and electrification

The Upgrade Imperative

  • Capacity Shortfalls: Pre-1980s panels (100-150 amps) frequently trip under EV charging loads of 30-80 amps, risking fire hazards.
  • EV Adoption Surge: With 40% of new vehicle sales projected to be EVs by 2025, 20 million EVs will demand upgraded home electrical systems.
  • Heat Pump Integration: Modern heat pumps draw 15-30 amps, compounding load issues when combined with EVs and appliances.
  • Safety Codes: 2025 NEC codes require exterior disconnects and surge protection, often necessitating panel updates.
  • Bidirectional Readiness: Future V2H (vehicle-to-home) charging requires modern panels capable of handling reverse power flow.

Square D Smart Solution

The QO Smart Panel's AI-driven load shedding can defer or eliminate costly 200-amp service upgrades:

  • Save up to $17,000: Avoid full-service expansion costs by maximizing existing 100-150 amp capacity.
  • Smart Prioritization: Automatically shed pool pumps or secondary HVAC when EV charges, preventing trips.
  • Overnight Charging: Charge your EV while you sleep without compromising other systems.
  • Future-Proof: Software updates add features like solar integration and V2H without hardware changes.
  • Expert Installation: ABR Electric ensures code-compliant, safe installation with upfront pricing.
Pro Tip: Schedule a free consultation with ABR Electric to assess your panel's capacity and explore smart upgrade options.
