The wireless receptacle is an integral part of the WaveLinx Wireless Connected Lighting (WCL) System and provides simplified wireless plug load control. Plug load control is required now in many building codes as part of an energy saving control strategy. The wall box mounted wireless duplex receptacle provides a constantly powered bottom outlet and a wirelessly controlled top outlet. The NEMA wireless receptacle includes the NEMA symbol for identifying a controlled receptacle as well as tamper resistant outlets for safety.

The wireless receptacle operates on a wireless mesh network based on IEEE 802.15.4 standards.

As part of the WaveLinx System, the wireless receptacle enables energy savings by turning OFF the top outlet when the area is unoccupied. The wireless receptacle is automatically paired with all WaveLinx occupancy sensors in a space when it is assigned to an area using the Wavelinx Mobile application. The wireless receptacle uses standard AC power wiring and has an internal relay that will Open/Close the controlled outlet. The use of wireless control features of WaveLinx reduces the wiring needed during installation.

Use of the wireless control features of the receptacle also includes power measurement capabilities that can be displayed in the WaveLinx Mobile application.
