PowerUp Load Management Can Reduce Service-Upgrade Pressure

PowerUp is SPAN's embedded energy management system. When a home approaches a configured electrical limit, PowerUp can manage selected high-demand loads to stay below the setpoint. On qualifying projects, that can make it possible to add equipment such as EV charging, heat pumps, or other large loads without automatically upsizing the utility service, subject to load calculations, permitting, and local code approval.

Circuit-Level Visibility, Control & Energy Insight

The SPAN Home App shows real-time household consumption, individual circuit activity, solar production, battery status, and major energy users. Homeowners can turn supported circuits on or off, review energy history, and adjust priorities. SPAN also provides local on-premise access for core monitoring and control when cloud connectivity is disrupted.

SPAN Panel Family & Energy Management Capabilities

SPAN combines five current panel configurations with software-based load management, circuit-level visibility, flexible battery backup priorities, solar and storage integration, and managed EV charging.

SPAN Panel MAIN 16

A compact main-breaker SPAN configuration for projects that need the platform's monitoring, control, PowerUp, and backup-management capabilities with fewer breaker spaces.

SPAN Panel MLO 24

A 24-space main-lug-only panel intended for subpanel applications where the main overcurrent protection is located upstream.

SPAN Panel MAIN 32

The 32-space main-breaker platform supports SPAN's core energy controls and the broadest current storage-integration set, including supported Tesla, FranklinWH, Enphase, and SolarEdge configurations.

SPAN Panel MAIN 40

A higher-space-count main-breaker option for homes that need additional branch-circuit capacity while retaining SPAN monitoring, PowerUp, app control, and supported battery integration.

SPAN Panel MLO 48

A 48-space main-lug-only configuration for large subpanel applications and projects where a separate upstream main disconnect is part of the electrical design.

SPAN PowerUp™

The embedded energy management system can automatically manage selected high-demand loads so the home stays below configured service or backup power limits.

SPAN Home App

Circuit-level monitoring and control, whole-home power flow, energy history, solar and battery visibility, backup priorities, and supported remote circuit control from one interface.

Battery Backup Priorities

When integrated with a compatible battery, homeowners can prioritize which circuits remain powered, reduce nonessential loads, and update backup priorities as conditions change.

Solar & Storage Integrations

SPAN supports solar monitoring and selected battery platforms. Exact compatibility depends on the panel model, storage equipment, gateway or controller, and required communications hardware.

SPAN Drive®

A SPAN Panel accessory for managed Level 2 EV charging, with dynamic charge-rate control and scheduled charging based on home demand and utility timing.

Frequently Asked Questions About SPAN Smart Panels

Who can install a SPAN Panel?

SPAN requires its panels to be installed and commissioned through the SPAN Authorized Installer process. Regent5 can coordinate the C10 electrical design, load calculations, service equipment, battery, solar, EV charging, networking, permitting, and commissioning path so the SPAN scope is resolved before construction begins.

How much does a SPAN Panel installation cost?

Installed cost depends on the SPAN Panel model, existing service equipment, breaker work, utility requirements, permitting, and whether the project also includes batteries, solar, EV charging, or service upgrades. Regent5 scopes the electrical system from the actual plans and site conditions rather than publishing one universal installed price.

Can SPAN help avoid an electrical service upgrade?

Potentially. SPAN PowerUp can manage selected high-demand loads to keep the home below a configured service rating. Whether that can replace a utility service upgrade depends on the load calculation, the home's existing service, local code, permitting authority, and the specific electrification plan.

What is SPAN PowerUp™?

PowerUp is the energy management system embedded in SPAN Panel. It watches total electrical demand and can automatically manage selected loads when the home approaches a configured limit. Homeowners can set the priority order for managed loads in the SPAN Home App.

Which home batteries work with SPAN Panel?

Compatibility depends on the SPAN Panel model. Current SPAN documentation lists Tesla Powerwall 3 and FranklinWH aPower systems across the current panel family, while SPAN Panel MAIN 32 also supports additional Tesla Powerwall configurations, selected Enphase IQ Battery systems with the required Remote Meter Kit, and supported SolarEdge Home Hub systems.

Does SPAN work with Tesla Powerwall 3?

Yes. SPAN currently lists Powerwall 3 as compatible across its current panel family when configured with supported Tesla backup equipment. The electrical and communications design should be coordinated before installation so the panel, battery, gateway or Backup Switch, and network connection are all planned together.

Does SPAN work with Enphase IQ Battery?

SPAN Panel MAIN 32 supports specified Enphase IQ Battery configurations when the SPAN Remote Meter Kit is included. Other current SPAN panel models do not yet have the same Enphase compatibility, so the exact panel and storage system should be verified during design.

What happens to a SPAN home during a power outage?

With a compatible battery system, SPAN applies circuit-level backup priorities when the home goes off-grid. Critical loads can remain powered while lower-priority loads are reduced or turned off, helping protect the battery from overload and extend useful backup duration.

Does SPAN still work if the internet goes down?

Core PowerUp behavior continues using the most recent settings when internet or cellular connectivity is temporarily unavailable. SPAN also offers Home On-Premise, a local web access path for supported monitoring, circuit control, and backup-priority adjustments from devices connected to the home's local network.

Can SPAN manage EV charging?

Yes. SPAN Drive is a Level 2 charger designed specifically as an accessory to SPAN Panel. It can vary its charging rate based on available household capacity, charge at up to 48 amps when capacity is available, and schedule charging around preferred utility time windows.

Can a large home use more than one SPAN Panel?

Yes, multi-panel configurations are possible and the SPAN Home App can display multiple panels. Model selection matters: SPAN notes that MAIN 32 does not share the same app experience with MAIN 16, MAIN 40, MLO 24, or MLO 48, so large-estate panel architecture should be planned before equipment is ordered.

Which SPAN Panel is right for my home?

The choice between MAIN 16, MLO 24, MAIN 32, MAIN 40, and MLO 48 depends on whether the panel is service equipment or a subpanel, required breaker spaces, utility service, battery compatibility, backup architecture, solar, EV charging, and future electrification plans. The decision should be made from the electrical one-line and load calculation, not just panel size.
