INTRODUCTION
Welcome! The Lumin Smart Panel (LSP) is a standalone product that extends the
capability of an existing circuit breaker panel (or “electrical panel”) by
providing measurement and remote control of up to twelve (12) circuits in a
home or building. The function of the circuit breaker panel remains the same
and is not impacted. The LSP securely and safely transmits real-time
consumption information to the cloud via Ethernet connection (preferred) or
customer WiFi.
Data and system controls can be accessed via the Lumin mobile app or the web-
based Lumin dashboard (app.luminsmart.com). The
Lumin app gives customers insights into their energy consumption and energy
costs, as well as providing the user with the ability to control or automate
their energy use remotely.
NOTE: A Lumin Smart Panel will not function as designed until it is fully
commissioned. It is generally the responsibility of the installer to perform
both the physical installation and the online
setup/commissioning process. Refer to pg. 31 to begin the setup process. All
qualified persons installing this product should complete Lumin Certified
Installer Training prior to installation. Scan below to register for training.
Need help? For installation assistance please contact Lumin by e-mail at support@luminsmart.com or by phone at 1-888-421-0616 (North America).
DANGER : HAZARDOUS VOLTAGES PRESENT DURING INSTALLATION AND SERVICING. PRECAUTIONS AND QUALIFICATIONS REQUIRED. REFER TO THE FOLLOWING PAGE.
READ BEFORE USE
The LSP interfaces with existing electrical panels and includes
conduit/fittings for installation with surface-mount electrical panels. Verify
the label model number is LSP-12-OR before performing an outdoor installation.
Please review the product’s technical ratings and specifications (pg. 36) to
confirm it is suitable for your application prior to installation.
NOTE: The LSP Circuit Label & CT Table (provided with the LSP) must be
completed and delivered to the home/building owner upon the successful
installation of the LSP. A completed LSP Circuit Label & CT Table is required
in order to complete LSP setup.
Warnings
LSP installation and servicing involves dangerous voltages that can cause injury or death. In addition to specific instructions accompanied by the symbol throughout this booklet and product labeling, observe the following safety precautions:
- Installation and servicing must be conducted by qualified persons, according to local and national electrical codes
- Lumin Certified Installer training is required for installation and servicing
- Review entire manual before starting the installation or servicing
- Personal protective equipment should be worn when installing or servicing the product
- Do not install or operate the LSP other than intended or outside the conditions specified on pg. 36
- Do not open, attempt to access, or touch any internal product parts — dangerous voltages would be exposed even if main service feed is disconnected
- Do not use the product if it is damaged or appears to be damaged
- Use only the wires and cables supplied with the product
- Power relays are evaluated for 100,000 cycles at a 1.5 HP inductive load (e.g., motors) — larger loads of this type may result in premature relay failure
- The product warranty does not cover damage due to lightning. Lumin recommends the installation of a whole-house surge protector to prevent product damage due to lightning strike
- This manual covers outdoor surface mounted electrical panel installations only. Connecting the LSP conduit to an outdoor recessed electrical panel is the sole responsibly of the installer and shall be done in accordance with all local codes and regulations.
SYSTEM DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
- The LSP should be mounted so that the connected electrical panel is within reach of the LSP’s flexible conduit fitting. The fitting extends 13″ beyond the left face or 9” beyond the right face of the LSP enclosure. Ensure that the electrical panel has adequate wiring space for LSP conductors and connections. Suitable junction boxes and conduit may be used to route and/or extend LSP conductors if needed. For voltage drop calculations, assume LSP conductors add 15 one-way-feet to the circuit.
- An LSP requires an always-on Internet connection, either via Ethernet (preferred if available) or 2.4 GHz WiFi. Make sure your router is configured with 2.4 GHz enabled. The LSP is only able to connect to 2.4 GHz WiFi networks. The LSP requires the liquidtight integrity to be maintained at the 3/4″ knockout for communication wiring. Failure to maintain the liquidtight integrity will void the warranty.
- When used for energy management, the LSP will be most effective when used to shed heavy discretionary loads. These are loads greater than 15 amps that may be desired during grid outages or other energy-constrained situations. Lumin can shed such loads automatically while permitting a user to manually re-enable them at their discretion. More information about circuit selection is provided in the required Lumin Certified Installer Training. In order to shed discretionary loads in response to grid conditions, a connection to non-backed up utility grid power is required for the LSP grid detection circuit. See pg. 28. This will require wiring beyond the LSP’s connected electrical panel. Controlling the circuit that powers the Internet connection is not recommended; manual control of the LSP will be lost when this circuit is switched off.
- The LSP does not replace the need for standard circuit breakers. LSP does not provide overcurrent protection, ground fault protection, arc fault detection, or other safety functions of circuit breakers.
- The LSP uses current transformers (CTs) to measure overall power flows. Correct placement of these CTs may require wiring beyond the LSP’s connected electrical panel/s. See pg. 23.
- If the LSP is configured to automatically shed loads exceeding backup capacity following a grid outage, a Temporary Power Unit (TPU) accessory module may be required if the transfer to backup power takes more than 70 ms. Without the TPU, the LSP could lose power before backup transfer completes, and circuit disconnection would be delayed until after the LSP powers on with the backup source. If unsure about transfer times, contact Lumin to determine if a given system requires a TPU. The TPU may be installed inside the LSP enclosure before (preferred) or after LSP purchase.

INSTALLATION
Items in the Box
NOTE : Additional items include an antenna, installation hardware, Lumin Identifier Sticker Sheet, and an LSP Circuit Label & CT Table.
Required Materials (Not Included)
NOTE : Additional supplies may be required depending on the existing
electrical panel installation. A non-GFCI dual-pole breaker of 15 to 20 amps
may be required to power the LSP. Appropriately rated, non-GFCI breakers may
be double-tapped depending on local electrical codes. See pg. 17 for more
details. A supply-side connection (line-side tap) and/or wire extension may be
required for the LSP’s Grid Detection Circuit (see pg. 28). Specific wire
extension supplies may be required for current transformers (see pg. 26).
Liquidtight conduit (3/4” trade size) may be required for communication wiring
(see pg. 31). The conduit provided is 2” (trade size) LFNC- B. Additional
liquid tight conduit and fittings may be required depending on installation
conditions. The installer may orient the provided 90° conduit elbow to the
left or right side, or replace it with a different 2” (trade size) LFNC
fitting.
For outdoor installations: The installation orientation of the LSP must be
plumb and level with the conduit fitting at the bottom of the enclosure. All
conduit and fittings between the LSP and the electrical panel/s must be
liquidtight conduit. For communication wiring, the LSP requires the liquid-
tight integrity to be maintained at the 3/4″ knockout. Failure to maintain the
liquidtight integrity of the LSP enclosure will void the warranty.
Required Tools
NOTE : A multimeter may be required for determining current transformer placement (see pg. 25).

Hardware Installation Steps
-
STEP 1. Turn Off Main Feed and Remove Electrical Panel Cover
WARNING: HIGH VOLTAGE. ENSURE MAIN BREAKER IS OFF. MAIN SERVICE LINES ARE ALWAYS LIVE. AVERTISSEMENT: HAUTE TENSION. ASSUREZ-VOUS QUE LE DISJONCTEUR PRINCIPAL EST ÉTEINT. LES CONDUCTEURS DE SERVICE PRINCIPAUX SONT TOUJOURS SOUS TENSION. Tools : Screwdriver -
STEP 2. Knock Out or Punch One Hole for 2” Conduit Fitting
WARNING: HIGH VOLTAGE. ENSURE MAIN BREAKER IS OFF. MAIN SERVICE LINES ARE ALWAYS LIVE. AVERTISSEMENT: HAUTE TENSION. ASSUREZ-VOUS QUE LE DISJONCTEUR PRINCIPAL EST ÉTEINT. LES CONDUCTEURS DE SERVICE PRINCIPAUX SONT TOUJOURS SOUS TENSION.
Tools: Screwdriver, pliers, drill (optional), and knockout punch (optional)
NOTE: Knockout hole location in electrical panel may vary depending on spacing constraints. Choose a location that avoids existing obstructions and provides adequate clearance for routing of the LSP wire whips. Use of existing pre- stamped 2” knockouts are acceptable provided there is sufficient clearance. Otherwise, a 2” knockout punch (2-3/8” hole) will be required to attach the LSP conduit. The conduit elbow exiting the LSP may be rotated 180° to mount the LSP to the left side of the electrical panel. Additional conduit fittings may be required depending on routing conditions, including installations that utilize the bottom face of the electrical panel. Ensure the knockout hole location allows vertical mounting of the LSP as shown in the following steps. -
STEP 3. Determine LSP Mounting Position Relative to Conduit Routing
NOTE : The LSP must be mounted in the vertical orientation shown (with the conduit exiting the LSP from the bottom). To prepare for mounting, position the LSP in alignment with the knockout hole in the electrical panel. Temporarily feed the wire whips and conduit fitting into the knockout hole. -
STEP 4. Measure and Mark Hole Locations for Mounting
Tools: Tape measure, marker, stud-finder (optional), and level.
NOTE: The LSP must be mounted in the vertical orientation shown. Verify that the bracket placement provides a level installation without introducing strain on the conduit attachments. Then mark the applicable hole locations using the mounting brackets. Exact hole locations may vary depending on existing conditions. Qty 4 holes are required to sufficiently mount the LSP. The mounting hole for the lower bracket is 19¼” or 19.3” below the center mounting hole of the upper bracket. -
STEP 5. Secure Mounting Brackets to Wall
Tools: Drill, stud-finder (optional), screws (x4), and washers (x4)
NOTE: Ensure the outer screws of the upper bracket are securely threaded into studs, sheathing, brick, masonry, or other suitable structural anchors. For masonry applications (including brick) use the appropriate fasteners included in the installation hardware. Exterior cladding such as vinyl or aluminum siding are examples of unsuitable anchors. Secure the LSP to the structure behind exterior cladding systems. -
STEP 6. Attach LSP Antenna and Guide LSP Wire Whip into Electrical Panel
NOTE: Attach the antenna provided with the LSP and then guide the wire whip through the knockout in the electrical panel. Remove the conduit bushing before guiding the wire whip through the hole. -
STEP 7. Secure LSP to Wall/Bracket and Electrical Panel
-
STEP 8. Connect LSP Equipment Grounding Conductor (EGC) to Ground Bar
-
STEP 9. Identify A-Row and B-Row Breakers
NOTE : For purposes of Lumin installation, the top row of breakers will always be classified as “A”. The second row of standard breakers will be “B”. The alternating A-B-A-B pattern continues down the rows of breakers. Exception: All breaker rows are designated “A” in panels with two-wire single-phase power rather than three-wire single-phase (split phase).
NOTE : If the electrical panel contains tandem or “skinny” breakers, there will be two breakers in a standard breaker space. Thus, the top-to- bottom breaker panel will be A-A-B-B-A-A-B-B. -
STEP 10. Connect LSP Power Circuit and Label Breaker
-
STEP 11. Select Circuit Breaker to Connect to LSP, Turn Off, and Disconnect Load
-
STEP 12. Connect One LSP Wire Labeled “Line 1 Breaker” to Circuit Breaker
-
STEP 13. Connect Corresponding LSP Wire Labeled “Line 1 Load” to Load and Turn Circuit Breaker Back On
-
STEP 14. Record Circuit Label/Name and Breaker Row (A/B) With Corresponding LSP Wire Number
NOTE: Record the circuit label/name and breaker row (A or B) with the corresponding LSP line number in the LSP Circuit Label & CT Table provided with the LSP (ex. record “Refrigerator” next to LSP Line 1 and circle Breaker Row “B” if the circuit labeled “Refrigerator” is connected to a B-row breaker and is connected to LSP Line 1). Double-pole circuit breakers will require two LSP wire sets, and thus two LSP line numbers. -
STEP 15. Repeat Steps 11-14 Until All LSP Line # Wires Are Connected
- WARNING: HIGH VOLTAGE. AVERTISSEMENT: HAUTE TENSION.
- Tools: Screwdriver, wire stripper, and wire splice connectors
- NOTE : All LSP wires labeled “Breaker” must connect to a breaker. Lines 1-6 (6 AWG wire) can connect to circuit breakers rated up to 60 amps and lines 7-12 (10 AWG wire) can connect to circuit breakers rated up to 30 amps (see pg. 36).
- NOTE : The LSP can connect to up to 12 single-pole (or six double-pole) circuit breakers. Each hot leg of a double-pole circuit must be connected to its own numbered Lumin wire set (ex. LSP controls a clothes dryer. Dryer Leg “A” is connected to LSP Line 3. Dryer Leg “B” is connected to LSP Line 4).
- NOTE : Controlling the circuit that powers the Internet/LAN equipment is not recommended, manual control of the LSP will be lost when this circuit is switched off.
- DOCUMENTATION AND INSTALLATION MANUAL
-
STEP 16. Determine Placement of Current Transformers (CTs)
DO NOT INSTALL CTS UNTIL PROPER LOCATION AND PHASING HAVE BEEN DETERMINED.
Each LSP is supplied with one set of two (2) 200-amp current transformers (CTs). The LSP is equipped with leads for these main CTs as well as leads for an optional set of auxiliary CTs which is available for purchase from Lumin. Most LSP installations do not utilize auxiliary CTs and use the main CTs to measure the total consumption of the electrical panel(s) backed up by a battery. In this typical installation, the CTs are placed on the feeders from the Microgrid Interconnect Device (MID) or Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) to the electrical panel, as shown in Figure A.
If your installation is configured differently than shown in Figure A or if your installation will utilize auxiliary CTs, consult the Lumin CT configuration guide for CT placement information. -
STEP 17. Phase Conductors Monitored by Current Transformers
REMINDER: For the purpose of a Lumin installation, the top* row of breakers in an electrical panel is always designated “A”. Whichever feeder leg supplies breaker Row A will be designated “A.”
NOTE: Lumin CTs are designated either “A” or “B”. Placing them on the incorrect leg of a circuit will result in erroneous consumption data.
If the panel is a main-lug-only type as shown in Figure B (no main circuit breaker) then the feeder on the left will be Lumin Leg “A”.
If the panel includes a main circuit breaker, note that the main breaker may contain crossover busing, with the result that the feeder on the left feeds the right-side bus bar and the feeder on the right feeds the left-side bus bar. To identify A/B feeders when a main breaker is present, consult the following page. -
STEP 18. Testing for Crossover before Current Transformer Placement
- To determine A and B feeders when a main circuit breaker is present, test for AC voltage between the left lug and the left bus bar*. If the bus bar is not accessible, test between the left lug and the terminal on the top left circuit breaker. See Figure C.
- If V between these points ≈ 240, the main breaker is a crossover type. Place CT – A on the right and CT – B on the left.
- If V between these points ≈ 0, the main breaker is a standard type. Place CT – A on the left and CT – B on the right.
WARNING: HIGH VOLTAGE. AVERTISSEMENT: HAUTE TENSION.
Tools : Multimeter
All descriptions assume a top-fed electrical panel.
-
STEP 19. Connecting Current Transformers
Prior to installation, measure the CT leads’ routing path(s) in the electrical panel. Local electrical codes may require securing CT wiring at regular intervals. If the provided leads are not long enough, fashion CT wire extensions in the field. Scan the adjacent code for information on the proper extension procedures.
When installing CTs, connect CTs labeled “Line A/B CT” to the 2-pin connector on the corresponding LSP lead first. Then clamp the CT around the corresponding feeder leg as determined in the previous steps. The CT marked with “A” should attach to Leg A and the CT marked with “B” should attach to Leg B. Ensure the sticker on the CT reading “This side toward grid” is facing toward the grid/utility meter.- WARNING: HIGH VOLTAGE. MAIN SERVICE LINES ARE ALWAYS LIVE.
- AVERTISSEMENT: HAUTE TENSION. LES CONDUCTEURS DE SERVICE PRINCIPAUX SONT TOUJOURS SOUS TENSION.
- CAUTION: A CT SHOULD NEVER BE LEFT CLAMPED ON A CONDUCTOR WHEN THE CT WIRING IS DISCONNECTED. SATURATION AND DESTRUCTION OF THE CT CORE MAY RESULT. CONNECT CT WIRING BEFORE CLAMPING. UNCLAMP BEFORE DISCONNECTING CT WIRING.
- ATTENTION: UN TRANSFORMATEUR DE COURANT NE DOIT JAMAIS ÊTRE LAISSÉ SERRÉ SUR UN CONDUCTEUR LORSQUE LES FILS DU TRANSFORMATEUR DE COURANT SONT DÉCONNECTES. LA SATURATION ET LA DESTRUCTION DU
- NOYAU PEUVENT EN RÉSULTER. CONNECTER LES CÂBLES DU TRANSFORMATEUR DE COURANT AU LSP AVANT L’INSTALLATION. DÉSINSTALLEZ LE TRANSFORMATEUR DE COURANT AVANT DE DÉBRANCHER SON CÂBLE.
-
STEP 20. Record Line Name(s) of Corresponding Current Transformers
NOTE: Record the line name of the corresponding attached CTs in the LSP Circuit Label & CT Table. For example, record “Main Service Lines” next to “Line A/B CTs” if the CTs were attached to main feeders. -
STEP 21. Connect the LSP’s Grid Detection Circuit (GDC) Wires to the Grid Side of an Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) or Microgrid Interconnect Device (MID)
- WARNING: HIGH VOLTAGE. ENSURE MAIN BREAKER IS OFF. MAIN SERVICE LINES ARE ALWAYS LIVE. AVERTISSEMENT: HAUTE TENSION. ASSUREZ-VOUS QUE LE DISJONCTEUR PRINCIPAL EST ÉTEINT. LES CONDUCTEURS DE SERVICE PRINCIPAUX SONT TOUJOURS SOUS TENSION.
- Tools : Wire stripper and wire splice connectors
- NOTE : The GDC monitors the presence of grid voltage. The GDC must be installed so that it is not backed up by storage. Land the “Grid Neutral” wire at the most upstream neutral bar or terminal possible. Extend the “Grid Line” wire via suitable wire splice connector and land it on non-backed-up circuit breaker or perform a supply-side connection (or “line-side tap”) on a wire that will lose power in a grid outage. The 12 AWG wires in this circuit must have overcurrent protection per local code.
-
STEP 22. Replace Electrical Panel Cover and Turn On Main Feed
Tools: Screwdriver
NOTE: Please make any necessary exterior wall repairs (if applicable) and clean up the area around the circuit breaker panel once the LSP installation is completed. If the LSP cover has not been removed, remove it: unlatch the toggle clamps from both sides and pull the bottom of the cover away while lifting upwards. Ensure the LSP power switch is set to OFF (O). Then turn on the main feed. -
STEP 23. Attach Antenna and Turn On the LSP to Begin Configuration and Account Setup
WARNING: HIGH VOLTAGE. ENSURE MAIN BREAKER IS OFF. MAIN SERVICE LINES ARE ALWAYS LIVE. AVERTISSEMENT: HAUTE TENSION. ASSUREZ-VOUS QUE LE DISJONCTEUR PRINCIPAL EST ÉTEINT. LES CONDUCTEURS DE SERVICE PRINCIPAUX SONT TOUJOURS SOUS TENSION.
Tools : Screwdriver
NOTE : If the LSP cover has not been removed, remove it. Make sure the LSP’s antenna, which is included in the LSP box, is securely attached. Then switch the LSP power to ON (I). -
STEP 24. LSP Configuration
Configuration and Account Setup Please note that the configuration and account setup via our mobile app often changes as we update the software. As such, the steps below are a generalized version of the commissioning process. To view more detailed information on this process, refer to our Knowledge Base by going to luminsmart.freshdesk.com or scanning the code. -
After completing the hardware installation, ensure the LSP power switch is in the “ON” position (“I”). The blue and green indicator lights will begin blinking in unison, indicating that the LSP is ready for commissioning.
-
If feasible, make an Ethernet connection between the Lumin Smart Panel’s Ethernet port and a LAN port on the location’s router. This Ethernet connection is more reliable than a WiFi connection and is not affected by replacing the router or resetting the WiFi network
password. Utilize the 3/4″ trade size knockouts in the LSP enclosure and liquidtight conduit to route communication wiring. -
Replace the LSP cover by hooking over the top lip of the enclosure and latching the toggle clamps on both sides.

TROUBLESHOOTING AND REPAIRS
End User
If the LSP is not functioning as expected, ensure that the power switch is on,
Internet service is available, antenna/Ethernet connection is secure, and
breakers are switched on. See Operational Information (pg. 35) on how to read
the LSP indicators for Internet connectively status. It is best to obtain
assistance from a qualified installer for further troubleshooting of hardware
issues. The installer’s familiarity with Lumin products and ability to perform
electrical work will help resolve issues effectively. Alternatively, contact
Lumin directly for assistance.
Qualified Installer
Observe all safety precautions listed on page 2. Never use the LSP to de-
energize circuits to perform electrical work. The LSP is not designed for
safety disconnecting means; lock-out/tag-out is not possible. Additionally,
when not properly connected, the app may incorrectly indicate that a circuit
is de-energized, so always assume that the LSP circuits are enabled, and
conductors are live. Ensure that the power switch is on, Internet service is
available, antenna/ethernet connection is secure, and breakers are switched
on. Inspect the system for installation and wiring faults (e.g., loose wire
connections). If the issue is not resolved, contact Lumin.
Lumin Certified Installer training is required before Lumin will authorize
work on an existing LSP. Case-specific authorization and instruction will be
provided by Lumin if applicable. Do not open cover or attempt repairs
otherwise — even with the LSP power switch and main feed breakers off, the
Grid Detection Circuit (GDC) is connected to hazardous voltages. The LSP power
switch does not de-energize the internal product components. Fuses: LSP Power
– non-replaceable 2.5 A; GDC – 1 A, slow blow.
DANGER: HAZARDOUS VOLTAGES PRESENT DURING INSTALLATION AND SERVICING. DO NOT OPEN LSP COVER, INSPECT INSTALLATION WIRING, OR ATTEMPT REPAIRS WITHOUT REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS AND LUMIN AUTHORIZATON. ALWAYS DISCONNECT ELECTRICAL SUPPLY BEFORE PERFORMING REPAIRS.
OPERATIONAL INFORMATION
NOTE : Simultaneous blue and green blinking lights indicate that the LSP
is in Setup Mode. This is the required mode for initial setup and
commissioning, however the LSP does not connect to the Internet via WiFi in
this mode. If both lights are seen blinking during normal operation, it is
likely that the
“Setup” button was pressed, taking the LSP offline. In most instances, an
additional press-and-release of the “Setup” button will bring the LSP back
online. Note that it may take about 45 seconds to restore the connection and
display two solid unblinking indicator lights.
NOTE : During an Internet outage local connection can be made between an
LSP and user’s mobile device as long as the device and the LSP are connected
to the same network. Ensure that the LSP is not in Setup Mode and that WiFi
connectivity is enabled on the mobile device.
NOTE : In the unlikely event that the LSP cannot be controlled via the
mobile app or web interface, all Lumin-controlled circuits can be enabled by
toggling the Lumin power rocker switch in a particular sequence. To bypass the
system, turn LSP power off (“O”), then on (“I”), then off again (“O”). Please
contact Lumin support as soon as possible so we can help resolve your issue.

LIMITED WARRANTY FOR LUMIN SMART PANEL
This Limited Warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may also have other rights, which vary from state to state. We warrant that during the warranty period, the product will be free from defects in materials and workmanship. To the maximum extent allowable under applicable law, this Limited Warranty is offered in lieu of, and we fully disclaim, any and all implied warranties and any implied remedies, including without limitation the warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose. Some states do not allow disclaimers of certain implied warranties or limitations on how long certain implied warranties last, so the above limitations may not apply to you. To the maximum extent allowable under applicable law, our responsibility for defective goods is limited to repair, replacement, or refund as described below in this warranty statement.
Who May Use This Warranty? Coulomb Inc. (d/b/a Lumin), a Delaware corporation located at address 501 Locust Ave, Floor 1, Suite 2, Charlottesville, VA 22902 (“we”) extends this limited warranty only to the consumer who originally activated the product and connected it to a Lumin Account (through luminsmart.com)) and to any subsequent owner or other transferee of the product (“you”).
What Does This Warranty Cover? This limited warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship of the Lumin Smart Panel (the “product”) for the Warranty Period as defined below.
What Does This Warranty Not Cover? This limited warranty does not cover any damage due to: (a) transportation; (b) storage; (c) improper installation; (d) improper use; (e) failure to follow the product instructions; (f) failure to adhere to the product’s technical specifications, including product’s environmental and electrical ratings; (g) modifications; (h) unauthorized opening of the product’s cover; (i) tampering with the product’s internal components; (j) unauthorized repair; (k) normal wear and tear; (l) external causes such as accidents, abuse, flooding, lightning strikes, storms or other actions or events beyond our reasonable control; or (m) user error, including acts or omissions of any end user or any administrator (other than where Lumin acts as sole administrator). This limited warranty also does not apply to the software, mobile applications, technology and services provided by Lumin which enable you to remotely access and view data that is collected, stored and transmitted by the product concerning electricity consumption and/or to remotely control electrical circuits which the product is connected to (the “Lumin Service”). Use of the Lumin Service is subject to and governed by the terms of the Lumin Service User Agreement, a copy of which can be accessed at luminsmart.com/consent-documentation/. The warranties expressly set forth in the Lumin Service User Agreement are the sole and exclusive warranties that apply to the Lumin Services.
What Is the Period of Coverage? The “Warranty Period” for this limited warranty starts on the date the product is first activated and connected to a Lumin Account (through luminsmart.com) and lasts (a) for two years for the product’s sensor boards and the processor board, including individual components that makeup the sensor boards and processor board, and (b) for ten years for all other components of the product. The Warranty Period is not extended if we repair or replace the product. We may change the availability of this limited warranty at our discretion, but any changes will not be retroactive.
What Are Your Remedies Under This Warranty? With respect to any product that we have verified is defective in materials or workmanship based on a claim made during the applicable Warranty Period, we will, in our sole discretion, either: (a) repair or replace such product (or the defective part) free of charge or (b) refund the purchase price of such product. We will also pay for shipping and handling fees to return the repaired or replacement product to you if we elect to repair or replace the defective product.
How Do You Obtain Warranty Service? To obtain warranty service, you must call 1-888-421-0616 or e-mail support@luminsmart.com during the Warranty Period to make a warranty claim. We will evaluate the claim and may require you to provide information and documentation to substantiate the claim, in our discretion. If we determine in our reasonable discretion that your claim is valid, we will provide you with a Defective Merchandise Authorization (“DMA”) number, which you can use to procure a repair, replacement, or refund, as described above, in our discretion. No warranty service will be provided without a DMA number.
Limitation of Liability. The remedies described above are your sole and exclusive remedies and our entire liability for any breach of this Limited Warranty. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, our liability shall under no circumstances exceed the actual amount paid by you for the defective product, nor shall we under any circumstances be liable for any consequential, incidental, special or punitive damages or losses, whether direct or indirect. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.
