The Genius system can control a wide variety of electric heating systems, from Infra-Red panels to wall-mounted convection heaters.
The Electric Switch cannot be used to control Electric Underfloor heating. Attempting to use an Electric Switch to control underfloor heating may damage the Electric Switch, the Electric Underfloor Heating or the floor itself.
Wired in Electric Heating
Many Electric Heaters are wired into a Fused Switch Spur, for electrical safety. These can be controlled by the Genius system by fitting the Electric Switch between the wiring of Switched Fused Spur and the Electric Heater.
For appliances rated up to 2kW use minimum 1.0mm2 flexible conductors. For appliances rated up to 3kW use minimum 1.5mm2 flexible conductors.
Plug in Electric Heating
Plug in heaters which are to be controlled with the Genius system should be plugged into Smart Plugs, which can can used to switch the Electric Heater on and off. For information on setting up the heaters on the app, see the 'Expanding your System' chapter in the User Manual, found in the Main Menu of the app.
General Information
The Electric Switch is rated to 13A maximum, and must not be wired to a more powerful heater, or a number of heaters which together go above this limit.
Standard wiring diagrams are provided with the system. If you require any other wiring diagrams, please see the website.
Do not attempt to wire in the Electric Switch if you are not 100% sure that you know what you are doing. Danger of electric shock! All wiring should conform to IEE regulations. The Electric Heater and wiring for the Electric Switch must be electrically isolated before you commence work on wiring the Electric Switch!
