Overview:

Installing your Smart Splitter is a straightforward process that typically takes 5-10 minutes. This guide will walk you through each step to ensure proper and safe installation.

Required Tools:

• Phillips head screwdriver
• Time required: 5-10 minutes

Installation Steps:

1. Turn Off Power

• IMPORTANT: Locate the circuit breaker controlling your 240V outlet
• Turn off the breaker before beginning installation
• Unplug any appliance or EV charger currently using the outlet

2. Install Mounting Bracket

• Locate the included mounting bracket and bracket screws (2x)
• Remove the existing faceplate screws
• Align the mounting bracket with the outlet faceplate
• IMPORTANT: Ensure the bracket slots align with the gold mounting points on your Smart Splitter
• Secure the bracket using the provided bracket screws

3. Plug in Smart Splitter

• Insert the Smart Splitter into your outlet
• Secure it to the mounting bracket using either:
  • Thumb screws (2x) for easy removal
  • Panhead screws (2x) for a lower profile installation
• Note: Choose panhead screws if thumb screws interfere with cable orientation

4. Connect Primary Device

• The Primary outlet (marked "PRI") always has priority
• Plug your primary device (typically your appliance or priority EV) into this side
• Look for "PRI" marking next to the LED indicator

5. Connect Secondary Device

• Plug your secondary device into the outlet marked "SEC"
• This outlet automatically pauses when the primary device draws power
• Look for "SEC" marking next to the LED indicator

6. Restore Power

• Turn the circuit breaker back on
• Verify power by checking the LED indicators:
  • WHITE indicates the unit is powered and idle
  • GREEN indicates power is being drawn
  • All other LED colors indicate different states (see LED Indicator Guide)

7. Connect to WiFi and Configure Settings in App

• Download the NeoCharge App
