Build a more efficient grid: New intelligence and control at the edge.
Eaton: Powering Business Worldwide
Smart energy decisions powered by smart breakers.
Decarbonization and increased electrification are creating an environment where power needs to flow bi-directionally, between renewable energy sources, electric vehicle charging infrastructure and other loads. Many new parts of the system now need to be connected and controlled. Eaton reimagined the central point where power is connected to the grid and distributed at home: the circuit breaker. The result is a staggering transformation that brings unprecedented visibility and control at the grid edge, providing new circuit-level insights.

How can smart breakers help utilities?
Enabled through Eaton's open APIs, powered by Brightlayer, utilities have the flexibility to integrate with preferred software management systems such as Virtual Peaker, SunVerge and LG.
-
Optimize DERs
Our smart breakers include revenue-grade metering, enabling monitoring through net metering, showing how much energy is created and consumed.
-
Improve resiliency and support flexible load management
Eaton smart breakers can help manage peak demand and advance resiliency during an outage by helping turn off non-essential loads so that onsite energy storage systems can power critical loads longer.
-
Simplify demand response
Enable a more efficient and less intrusive approach to demand response through the ability to control loads discretely inside a loadcenter.
-
Intuitive future planning
Leverage historical and real-time metering data from connected loads to generate accurate insights for grid planning, energy storage optimization and forecasting DER deployment. All enabled through our revenue-grade metering capabilities (±0.2% accurate metering as per ANSI C12.20).
