Savant’s Smart Budget System: Revolutionizing Home Electrical Control

Savant Systems Unveils Smart Budget: Revolutionizing Your Home's Power Management

At CES this week, Savant Systems unveiled its latest innovation, the Savant Smart Budget, part of its Smart Power system. This groundbreaking feature is designed to enhance the efficiency of your existing electrical setup by integrating seamlessly with your circuit breaker box.

Understanding the Smart Budget Technology

If you're operating at the limits of your breaker box's capacity, the Savant Smart Budget is a game changer. This technology enables automated control over individual circuits, allowing homeowners to add more high-draw connections, such as appliances or electric vehicle (EV) chargers, than their electrical box can handle simultaneously.

Intelligent Power Allocation

For example, with the Smart Budget, you can schedule power flow to your EV for charging overnight, post-oven use. This intelligent power allocation is particularly beneficial for those utilizing house batteries or solar power systems.

Cost-Effective Installation

Starting at just $1,500, Savant's system provides a more budget-friendly alternative to upgrading your service with your electric utility provider—a process that can soar to tens of thousands of dollars. The installation requires a licensed electrician, ensuring a safe and effective setup.

Compatibility With Major Electrical Panels

One of the standout features of the Smart Budget system is its broad compatibility. According to Savant's CMO, JC Murphy, the system fits into "most major electrical panels" that standardize on one inch breaker spacing. Brands like Schneider, Eaton, GE, ABB, Siemens, and others are supported.

What’s Included in the Smart Budget Kit?

The Smart Budget kit comes complete with:

  • Two 30-amp single-pole circuit breakers (Power Modules)
  • One double-pole 60-amp circuit breaker
  • A current tracker for monitoring circuits
  • A Savant "Director" hub
  • Various sensors for added functionality

Additionally, Savant offers supplementary Power Modules at reasonable prices—$120 for dual 20-amp or single-pole 30-amp versions, and $240 for a 60-amp double-pole module.

Conclusion

The Savant Smart Budget is poised to revolutionize home energy management, providing greater control and efficiency without the exorbitant costs associated with traditional power upgrades. With its cutting-edge technology and compatibility, it’s an intelligent choice for homeowners looking to optimize their electrical systems.
