Bluetooth Arc Fault Detection Devices.

Crazy! Why do this? Are they so hard up on ideas to flog these infernal devices that they have to fit them with bells and whistles? How long will it be before the dreaded 'Hager will no longer be providing support for bluetooth enabled devices' message pops up on your screen?

I am too old for this.

I cleared some apps and storage on my phone to make way for some EVSE apps, it looks like I’m going to have to clear some more space or upgrade my phone as apparently my cellular IPad is now too old to use some apps. 

What I can’t figure is why so much R and D is being directed at a product that is required for a very limited number of installations, lest, of course, Amendment 3 will mandate for wider application! 

Oh, look at all of those pretty colour options.

It is a wonder that I have survived so long with no "Apps" at all.

I guess it's first step towards a smart CU - where current/power metering or even load shedding could be done on a per-circuit basis, perhaps even giving early warning of overloads or high leakage currents. You'd have to factor in the power consumed by the CU too though. I do have my doubts about using the latest snazzy communications technology - electrical installations are expected to last for several decades - by the time a CU installed today is due for replacement BlueTooth will be about as available as RS-232 is today.

resetting the breaker from a distance would appeal to some people I reckon, saves visiting the building.

Saves being IN the building when the mcb attempts to auto-reset with a prevailing fault too!

That may probably invalidate any house insurance cover.
