Material analysis of the Taxnele Smart WiFi Circuit Breaker confirms a Tuya white-label chassis utilizing a resistive shunt for energy metering. Technical specifications indicate a 63A peak capacity, with the internal switching driven by a latching solenoid mechanism. The device interfaces with 2.4GHz networks via a CB3S or TYWE3S module, providing telemetry for voltage, amperage, and wattage with a reported accuracy of +/- 1%.
Performance metrics indicate that the resistive shunt generates a measurable amount of heat at maximum current, requiring a 10mm air gap in DIN-rail installations for passive cooling. Standardized testing reveals that the motorized solenoid lacks the arc-quenching capabilities found in industrial-grade hardware, making it unsuitable for use as a primary safety disconnect. The narrow terminal design is optimized for smaller gauge wiring, which may complicate the installation of 6AWG conductors for high-amperage applications.
Operational feature highlights include:
- Modes of operation: Remote Toggle, Granular Energy Tracking, Sub-Circuit Automation
The Smart WiFi Circuit Breaker with Energy Meter is an entry-level monitoring tool for secondary loads. For whole-home safety and verified overcurrent protection, the Leviton Smart Circuit Breaker with Remote Control offers the necessary safety certifications and build quality for primary panel integration.
This unit belongs to the energy monitoring smart plugs and hardware classification, focusing on localized data acquisition.
