WiFi Socket is a plug-in smart power device that enables remote switching and scheduled control of compatible electrical appliances through a WiFi network. Aipulan supplies models for residential, commercial and OEM/ODM applications, with different plug and electrical configurations for regional markets. Depending on the model, functions may include mobile app control, timer scheduling, voice control and energy monitoring, allowing conventional appliances to be managed without modifying their internal electrical systems.
Different socket types address different power-control requirements. Select the product according to the required control method, protection function and application environment.

It is suitable when the main requirement is remote access or scheduled power control. A Remote Control Socket is more suitable for simple wireless switching, while Surge Protector Socket and Motion Sensor Socket address protection and motion-detection requirements respectively.
Available functions depend on the selected model.
Compatible models allow users to switch connected equipment remotely through the corresponding mobile application or smart-home platform.
Timer functions can be used to set automatic ON/OFF schedules for compatible lighting and appliances.
Selected models can work with supported voice-control platforms. Platform compatibility should be confirmed for the specific model.
Models with built-in power monitoring can provide electricity-use information for connected equipment.
Not every WiFi Socket includes all of these functions. Check the product specification before ordering.
For product selection or bulk procurement, confirm the following parameters before choosing a model.

Standard export packaging may include individual packaging, protective inner packaging, export cartons, carton labels and pallet packing where required.
Check the destination-market voltage, frequency, plug type, maximum load, supported network, required functions and applicable certification requirements.
No. Energy monitoring is available only on models equipped with this function. Check the technical specifications of the selected model before ordering.
No. The connected appliance must be electrically compatible and remain within the rated load. Motor-driven, heating and other high-power equipment may require additional compatibility checks.
WiFi models use a network connection for functions such as remote or scheduled control, while dedicated remote-control models generally operate through a separate wireless controller. The suitable option depends on the required control method and operating environment.
No. Smart power control and surge protection serve different purposes. If protection against voltage surges is required, confirm whether the selected model includes this function or whether a dedicated surge protection product is needed.
Yes. Aipulan supplies configurations for applicable markets, including EU, AU and Italian-market versions. Voltage, plug type, electrical ratings and compliance requirements should be confirmed according to the destination market.
Yes. Customization can be evaluated for electrical configuration, housing, appearance, logo, packaging and selected functions according to the project requirements.
Provide the target market, voltage and plug type, required functions, estimated quantity, customization requirements, packaging requirements and delivery destination. This allows Aipulan to evaluate the appropriate configuration and quotation.
