The integration of smart technologies in the home is now an affordable reality and Square D, a brand of Schneider Electric, delivers everything an installer needs.

The integration of smart technologies in the home is now an affordable reality and Square D, a brand of Schneider Electric, delivers everything an installer needs, while adding substantial margins to their bottom line.

The market for home automation systems is growing because its uptake is permeating into lower priced housing.

Specialist installers have dominated the prestige homes sector, but a broader span of contractors are now able to capitalise on the burgeoning market.

Indeed, forward thinking electrical contractors are now using home automation installations to differentiate their business from traditional competitors.

Square D has two distinct systems - LexCom Home (including multi-room audio distribution) and Intelligent Home Control (IHC).

LexCom Home is a flexible and future proofed structured network, suitable for both individual homes and apartment blocks.

It enables services such as TV, data and telephony anywhere in the home, but more importantly allows these to be changed as the user's needs change.

IHC brings everything together in a seamless home control system.

It is the ultimate in intelligent operation, ensuring the home is always in-tune with the householder's needs.

It provides a range of practical functions and makes the concept of Smart Homes affordable.

Installation methods will be familiar to electrical contractors, however systems training from Square D ensures potential installers receive the necessary instruction to reach Approved Installer status.

To help electrical contractors and specialist installers, Square D has published a new comprehensive brochure, Intelligent Home Systems - Opportunities for the forward thinking installer.

The brochure details technical information for LexCom Home products, multi-room audio products and IHC products and provides a reference document for part numbers.
