Warnings related to non-compliance with electrical safety rules when
connecting devices
Perenio®Power Link smart plug is designed for use in domestic areas and
connection of general-purpose devices thereto.
When several power consumers are plugged into the smart plug at the same time, the
following parameters must be considered:
1. Technical specification.
The smart plug shall be plugged into the household electrical outlet of 100V to
240V designed for current of no more than 16A. It means that such an electrical
outlet can withstand a maximum power of up to 3,840W (or 3.8kW). At the
same time, the Power Link device is equipped with a relay that can withstand
a peak current of 20A for no more than 30 seconds.
2. Electric wiring of domestic premises.
One of the important requirements for electrical wiring is the load (power) it
must be able to withstand. The maximum allowable power depends on the mains
voltage and current. For example, the maximum power shall be 3,520W (or
3.5kW) in domestic premises with a standard mains voltage (220V) and current
(16A).
NOTE. The mains voltage may vary from country to country. In Europe and most
Asian countries, the voltage ranges from 220V to 240V (A socket of a higher
voltage (380V) is usually used for connection of powerful household appliances
and power tools); in America and Japan, the power ranges from 100V to 127V.
The maximum amperage value for an electrical outlet is regulated by relevant
documents and industry standards. Modern parameters are suitable for any
household equipment installed in an apartment or a house. When such premises
are commissioned, the current is increased from 10A to 16A for outlets, and it is
very unlikely that outlets of 20A to 32A (such outlets are designed for electric
stoves and cooktops) are used in domestic premises.
3. The rated voltage, maximum power and current of the connected load allowed
for an extension cord or a T-connector being used.
If several devices are plugged into the single outlet at the same time using an
extension cord or a tee, the power in the outlet will be equal to the sum of powers of
those devices. Thus, it shall be noted that the total wattage and amperage of
connected electrical appliances MUST NOT exceed the rating for the outlet stated by

Installation and Operation Manual
for Perenio® Power Link Devices
©Perenio IoT spol s r.o. All rights reserved Doc Version: 1.4.3
Page 17 of 49
the manufacturer, as well as the values allowed for the extension cord or the T-
connector, and the values specified for the particular electrical system. Failure to follow
the above rules may cause short circuits or overcurrent, and result in the risk of fire.
ATTENTION! Current overload results in a fire-hazardous emergency situation
and occurs when high current flows through a power grid element. Inappropriate
conductors, conductive parts and connection points are subjected to heat and
thermal damage, which in turn leads to a decrease in insulation properties and
destruction of components in the power grid, which causes fires.
1.6 Standalone Operation of Perenio® Devices
The Control Gateway/IoT Router in not necessarily required for all Perenio® devices
in order to alert Users on potentially dangerous situations
Thus, due to integration with Apple HomeKit the power plug can be used
autonomously.
NOTE that if it is required to manage the device via Google Home, Yandex Smart
Home (Alice) or Amazon Alexa, its preliminary activation in the Perenio Smart
application is required.
Guides to connect the smart plug in third-party applications can also uploaded to the
company’s website at perenio.com/faq.

2 Installation and Setup
Installation of the Perenio® Power Link device is not required, since it shall be just
plugged into the electrical socket to start operation.
NOTE. It is not recommended to install the device in areas with a high level of
noise and a high-frequency interference. Reinforced concrete floors may reduce
the distance of wireless signal transmission.
Figure 4 - Examples of Installation*
* Images of accessories are provided for informational purposes only
The entire process of setting-up the device can be divided into several key stages:
Insert the Power Link device to the source of power (mains socket);
Activate the device via the Perenio Smart Mobile App or Apple HomeKit;
Activate the device in Google Home, and/or Yandex Smart Home, and/or
Amazon Alexa, if required (This option is possible only after activation of the
device via the Perenio Smart Mobile App).
NOTE. The Perenio Smart: Building Management System Mobile App Manual
document is available for downloading at the web-site.

2.1 Initial Installation and Configuration
2.1.1 Powering On the Device
To power on the device, it is enough to unpack it, plug into the electrical socket and
press the Power Button so that the LED Indicator lights up (or blinks slowly) green.
After that you can connect household appliances to the device.
Figure 5 –Connection to the mains socket
2.1.2 Selection of the Connection Method
There are two modes when activating the power plug in the Mobile Application:
Zigbee Mode that is used for activation in the Perenio Smart App through the
Control Gateway or the IoT Router, including further activation of this device in
Google Home and/or Yandex Smart Home applications;
Bluetooth (MFi) Mode that is used for activation in Apple HomeKit without the
Perenio® Control Gateway or the IoT Router.
When you first switch on the Power Link device, or did not activate it in the Perenio
Smart App through the Control Gateway or the IoT Router, the default mode will be
the Bluetooth (MFi) Mode.
However, after it is activated in the Perenio Smart App through the Control Gateway
or the IoT Router, the Power Link device will automatically switch to the Zigbee Mode
and will not be available for connection in the Apple HomeKit application.
The device may be switched from Zigbee Mode to Bluetooth (MFi) Mode in one of the
following ways:
1. Find the power plug in the Devices tab, click on the Settings icon ( ), and select
“Disconnect device”to remove it from the Perenio Smart App.
