Inhab Load Manager, Intelligent and Programmable Energy Management System- Avoid Costly Panel Upgrades, UL Certified Grey

Device appears to be working. Instructions are downright incomplete to the point that nobody can get it to work unless they contact Siemens for support. I am experienced engineer. I have seen bad user manuals in my life. This one sets a new low. It is literally impossible to understand and, additional, key configuration information is completely omitted. Without this information it is impossible to get device to work. Siemens telephone support helped me, they sent me additional information by email. It is a mystery on why this information was not included in the first place. Also, instructions don't even try to address actual conversion from load rating to milliamp measurement that device show on its display. The tables in the manual don't work based on my measurements and experiments.

This device includes two current transformers that are installed over the two main hot lines at your service entrance or main breaker panel. The wires connecting the current transformers to the SIEMENS Inhab Load Manager need to be 500ft or less, this effectively limits the installation location to 500ft from the main service entrance or main breaker panel. The current transformers monitor the total load of your service, allowing you to set a point at which the EV charger or other load connected to the Inhab Load Manager will be turned on. Whenever the total load is less than the preset amps, your device connected to the Inhab Load Manager will be fed power. This allows for smaller services to use heavy loads such as Level 2 EV chargers safely. This could be used for anything, not just an EV charger. You could for example use it to turn on heat or AC to an outbuilding, but only when the main building is using less than the preset amps. Very useful in particular niche cases. This is the device you need when you have a large load that needs to be connected to a smaller service, and you want the load to only run when the existing service usage is low enough to allow for it. It's a clever design that keeps you safe from overloads. Construction quality is excellent. Everything feels beefy and durable. Comes with nearly everything needed to install. The price seems a bit high for what it is, but compared to a service upgrade, it's very reasonable.

Had to use this two times for ev chargers. Ui is hard to navigate, functions not clearly explained, no testing feature, CT's for the main wires are way too big, and the directions are just not that good. For something that costs almost $1000 I would expect better.

It features a compact design and is crafted from high-quality materials. It’s easy to install and comes with all the necessary components included. While it’s slightly heavy, the sturdy frame ensures secure wall attachment. For thin or older walls, additional support may be required.

The box is heavy duty and includes one (1) load manager and two (2) CTs, maximizes your existing electrical panel without expensive upgrades to your electrical service, easy to install and compatible with any brand load center (100-225A) For managing 2-pole loads up to 60A (such as EV chargers, electric water heaters, air conditioners, electric ovens, electric dryers, etc.) Due to the heavy weight of the box, it needs to be installed in areas with back walls, hollow walls cannot bear the weight!
