Franklin Home Power Solution
aGate Intelligent Energy Management Controller
The brain of the FranklinWH System, intelligently managing energy flow between various power sources and household loads to optimise your energy supply and usage.
An Integrated Energy Center
The aGate works as a central hub that integrates solar, battery, grid, generator, and EV, with home loads, providing intelligent coordination between energy inputs and outputs. With everything integrated, you get the full picture of your entire home’s live energy flow via the FranklinWH App on your phone, making it easier to monitor and manage.
Intelligent Control
The aGate intelligently manages the power sources, offering various energy modes so homeowners can personalize the settings to meet individual energy needs. Additionally, Smart Circuits allow flexible control over specific appliances.
By tracking and managing energy use and integrating with cloud-based monitoring, the aGate provides access to real-time energy insights and control.
Independent Management over Specific Appliances
The Smart Circuits Module, an optional aGate component, is an x-factor of the FranklinWH System, allowing independent and precise control over specific energy-intensive appliances such as EV chargers and A/C, automatically or manually through the FranklinWH App. For example, you can program the system to charge your EV while you sleep.
Inverter Agnostic
The aGate is compatible with all solar inverter brands, making it easy to integrate with your existing solar system without modifying your original setup, perfect for retrofit installations.
Backup Generator Integration
Supports the integration of all 230 V, 50 Hz standby generators, which can recharge the aPower battery while powering your homes, ensuring continuous power supply when solar is limited or unavailable during prolonged outages.
Adaptive Load Management
With Smart Circuits, you can have individual control over particular energy-intensive devices, scheduling them to automatically run during specific times to avoid peak rates or manually shutting them off to extend battery backup hours for critical loads.
80 A for Advanced Whole-home Energy Use
An 80 A capacity accommodates the power flow for your entire home. With the Grid Support feature, the aGate allows advanced energy use that can exceed the current limit of your main panel by supplying backup power, avoiding costly panel upgrades.
TOU Strategy to Maximise Savings
If your electricity rates vary throughout the day, select Time of Use (TOU) mode to prioritize using solar and battery power during peak-pricing periods to optimise savings. During off-peak times, the system will smartly mix power from solar, batteries, and the grid based on what’s most cost-effective for your home in real time.
Power Outage Proof
The aGate features an optional generator module that can integrate all types of 230 V, 50 Hz, standby generators to extend backup hours when solar and battery power are insufficient during long outages.
Easy Generator Module Setup
This optional module allows easy installation without the need for external components—everything required is already built in, saving time and effort.
Automated Experience
The generator operation is completely automated, with remote management through the FranklinWH App, eliminating human intervention for utmost convenience.
