In the heart of a bustling tech hub, a 15-year-old home stood as a testament to traditional architecture. Solid, dependable, but increasingly at odds with modern living needs. As an ASIC design engineer at Qualcomm, the client had always been fascinated by the possibilities of home automation. Years ago, he and his son, had even dreamed of creating their own smart switches, but time and complexity had kept this dream just out of reach.
Circling out the pain points
Like many homeowners with older properties, the client faced the classic dilemma of modernization. His home’s electrical setup was designed in a different era. Hence, there were constant drawbacks. The Gupta home houses heritage; it could not be torn down for automation. The family needed a smart solution that brought them abreast the rest of the world, without losing the essence of their home. Here were some of their main concerns:
1. Limited switch panel space in existing electrical layouts
2. Inefficient control mechanisms (e.g., fans with only regulators, no switches)
3. No remote monitoring and control capabilities
4. Lack of power consumption measurement at device level
5. Absence of a timer-based control of appliances
For them, the challenge wasn t just about convenience but about finding a way to bridge the old and the new without extensive renovations or rewiring. To that effect, they needed something that was sustainable, customized to their needs, and impactful. Here’s how they found the perfect partner for this journey.
Lighting up heritage with modern solutions
Like thousands of homes across India, this residence was also automated by Tata Power EZ HOME smart energy solutions. Seeing the team in action, The Gupta’s were fascinated by the possibilities that lay afoot. What caught Mr. Gupta’s attention wasn’t just the technology, but the practicality of the implementation. When asked about this experience, they still recount how the same old panel that once held only 2 mechanical switches now accommodates 4 smart ones. Here is what really changed the game.
But the transformation went far beyond just adding more switches. The new system brought home firmly into the digital age with:
1. Touch-sensitive panels that combined classic elegance with modern functionality
2. Remote control capabilities through a simple touch of a finger
3. Power consumption monitoring for better energy management
4. Timer functions for automated control
5. Integration with Google Home for enhanced convenience
6. Potential for installation of smart devices like thermostats that can be scheduled basis preference
Switching out the old sockets with smarter switches, is that all the impact of this smart swap? No, there’s a promise for the future. It’s the ushering in of a new age, one that flies with technology at its helm.
Powering homes with smart automation solutions
Creating impact that lasts
While the impact of this transfiguration went far and wide, the family now enjoys enhanced functionality in their traditional home. Here is a glimpse into the fruitful impact that EZ HOME generated:
1. Fans that could only be controlled through regulators gained proper switch control.
2. Power consumption became transparent and manageable.
3. The clients promptly installed smart locks and security cameras that allowed them to oversee and access their smart home and office remotely.
4. When they are away, the family can give access to repair personnel for maintenance; their tranquility remains unhindered.
5. Smart lighting, premium touch switches, and modular switches allowed them to use their appliances from their phone or directly through the switchboard.
6. The smart plugs allowed them to automate and schedule their devices; they saved money and enjoyed maximum efficiency on all appliances.
7. The process required no extra wiring, drilling, or renovations for the DG and inverter load connections; money saved is money earned.
8. The voice-control operation on their devices omitted all the fumbling that happens with switches.
9. Their trendsetting workspace was compatible with high-speed internet and video conferencing equipment.
10. One of the biggest benefits of integrating EZ HOME was that the Gupta home was not only more convenient, but also eco-friendlier.
While the sun is ready to set for the day, the new dawn of automation is all set to make an entrance. Like many others, the Guptas too are carefree and ready, thanks to their trusted friends at Tata Power EZ HOME.
