PAN has announced two new models of smart panels, SPAN Panel MAIN 40 +MID and SPAN Panel MLO 48. The panels have 25 to 50% more breaker spaces than the original SPAN Panel and include SPAN PowerUp software, making any new home all-electric ready with a flexible electrical foundation for their evolving needs. According to builder estimates, the expanded product line can save home builders between $3,000 and $10,000 per site by avoiding the high cost of 400A utility service.
These new models were designed specifically to address pain points for builders and give them a leg up over competitors. Not only does the larger circuit capacity better meet the needs of newer, modern homes, but SPAN Fleet Manager can also provide valuable data and insights for builders to help pinpoint problems and reduce service costs. Fast, easy installation and improved real-time data cut costs and time while increasing customer satisfaction and more efficiently resolving warranty calls.
The SPAN Panel can provide homeowners with:
- Unmatched energy management: 360° home energy visibility, circuit-level control and ongoing utility bill savings insights in the SPAN Home App.
- Better backup: SPAN Panel MAIN 40 +MID has a built-in microgrid interconnection device which simplifies solar and battery integration, eliminating the need for a separate component. Compared to standard panels, all SPAN Panel models offer up to 40% longer backup duration, and real-time flexibility during an outage.
- A powerful energy foundation: Patent-pending SPAN PowerUp technology intelligently balances home energy usage and future-proofs the home. Even on standard 200A service, homeowners can upgrade their homes over time and install popular electric appliances like EV chargers and heat pumps without additional, costly electrical work.
“With more demand on our electric grid than ever before, we’re at a pivotal moment in our nation’s energy transformation,” said Arch Rao, co-founder and CEO of SPAN. “SPAN is revolutionizing the 100 year old electric panel, and the expansion of our smart panel family is a critical next step in this journey. We’re proud to help builders cut costs, deliver an unparalleled customer experience and set modern standards for new-build homes.”
