FAQs

Do smart plugs work with UK three-pin sockets?

Yes. All plugs in this list are designed for UK Type G sockets and carry UKCA certification.

Can smart plugs save energy?

Yes. Models with energy monitoring let you see exactly what each appliance costs to run, and schedules prevent devices drawing standby power.

Do smart plugs work without Wi-Fi?

Most Wi-Fi smart plugs need a connection for remote control. Some Zigbee plugs work locally via a hub even when Wi-Fi is down.
