How to Select and Install Your Astute Smart Controller

Selecting the right smart controller depends on your application and environment. Common use cases include retrofitting lights, geysers, pumps, or securing critical loads remotely. Here's a structured approach for South African installations:

Quick Selection Checklist

  • Identify your load size (e.g. lighting circuit, appliance, or group); confirm amperage requirements (most Astute models up to 16A).
  • Check mains supply: Astute controllers are tailored for 230V AC grids.
  • Choose the correct form factor: behind-switch modules for lighting, DIN-rail variants for DB boards or multi-circuit automation.
  • Ensure WiFi coverage (2.4GHz band).
  • Match compatible management platforms (Google, Alexa, Tuya) used in your setup.

For safety, installations should adhere to local wiring codes and, where possible, be performed or signed off by a qualified electrician. Always follow the supplied wiring instructions for the exact Astute model you select.
