INTERVIEWWITH GILLESSCHNEPP

“Buildings are at the heart of the Internet of Things revolution.”

GILLES SCHNEPP - LEGRAND GROUP CHAIRMAN AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER

Why are buildings at the heart of the Internet of Things revolution?Connected devices are gradually creeping into all areas of our lives, and transforming our habits. Over the next twenty years, connected devices are likely to become the norm. Products that are incapable of communicating, acting on information transmitted to them or being remotely actuated will then be the exception. And as development of these devices increases and the flow of data travelling through buildings becomes more complex, buildings need to adapt, as of now.

What makes Legrand a stakeholder in this revolution?The fact that it’s our business! For more than 100 years we have been innovating to find the best solutions to users’ expectations in terms of electrical and digital building infrastructures. The Internet of Things is a reality that we have already taken on board: over $450 million in our sales in 2015 were attributable to connected devices. Connected objects are an opportunity for us to move up to a mass market.

What is the rationale of the Eliot program?The question is not knowing whether the Internet of Things is coming, but in what form. We at Legrand see this as an opportunity to provide our customers with more added value. And by customers we mean both private individuals and professionals. Our aim is genuinely to provide users with additional benefits. The ability to communicate should enhance the product’s value in use, by offering a real lasting benefit.

Numerous players are getting into the market for connected devices. How can Legrand stake a rightful claim to be a part of it?Because Legrand has a long history of involvement in the building sector. Because innovation is in our genes. Because we are close to our users, we know their requirements and expectations, and we respect them, especially the security of their data. Because at the end of the day this is what we do: offering simple, intuitive products that make a lasting difference to the daily lives of users, whether they are consumers or professionals.

INTERVIEWWITH TONYBERLAND

“If it has the capability to connect, it will connect.”

TONY BERLAND - CEO AND MANAGING DIRECTOR, LEGRAND AUSTRALIA & NEW ZEALAND

Why do you think the Internet of Things is transforming the way we live, work and communicate?The Internet of Things (IoT) connectseveryday devices to the Internet enhancing additional features.This connectivity will enable additional capabilities and a more intuitive and seamless use of electrical devices. For example, in addition to the traditional function provided by an electrical powerpoint, the new ELIOT devices will be able to notify the user about the energy consumption, a failure or to control remotely that powerpoint through a smartphone.

What does this mean for the everyday user?Put simply, if it has the ability to connect, it will connect. This means that any connected electrical device will be capable to interact with smartphones, home appliances, wearable devices, cameras, etc.If we put this into an everyday context– when commuting back home in theevening, with a simple touch from yoursmart-watch, you tell your home toturn on the air-conditioning and theoutdoor lights of your home …thepossibilities are endless!

What does The Internet of Things mean for electrical contractors?The IoT is set to be a game changerfor electrical contractors. It will transform the industry’s landscape, creating massive opportunities for those who position themselves cleverly. Today’sgrowth in the number of connecteddevices is generating a revolution in thebuilding sector, creating a new world of opportunity. To communicate, connected objects not only require high performance networks,but also a building infrastructure that allows them to connect to these networks.IoT will require the electrical contractorsto develop additional skills to understand how to deal with the IT side of these new smart devices.

How does Legrand fit into this new,connected revolution? Harnessing emerging trends, developing purposed innovation and disseminating technology in our products is within Legrand’s DNA. We can see the opportunities, and will do our best to turn this technological change into exciting opportunities for the electrical contractors and Trade partners.As the Internet of Things will touch everyone, the overall objective is to embrace the change, build the capabilities, turn it into increased customer satisfaction and ultimately, add additional value for businesses.

OUR VISION

Source: www.iot-analytics.com

Today’s growth in the number of connected devices is creating a revolution in the building sector. Firstly because digital infrastructures need to be expanded. But above all because changing usage means more and more building-related products being connected and controllable, including remotely.

Connected devices will increasingly become must-have objects for professionals in the commercial and industrial sectors as well as for private individuals in the home.

Smart, connected devices will help add new value for users: offering additional services, automating processes, reducing response times, understanding a status and adjusting decisions accordingly, etc. Legrand’s connected products will make users’ lives even simpler, with for example automated maintenance, centralised remote controls and even enhanced building security.

Connected devices will only become established if they bring lasting, substantial and reliable user benefits. Legrand’s pragmatic approach, its expertise in the building sector, its proximity to customers and its capacity for innovation are testament to the solidity and permanence of its offer.

THE ELIOT PROGRAM

OUR APPROACH

Convinced that the Internet of Things

will become established as the

standard, Legrand is speeding up

development of its connected offer

with the Eliot program. Mobilising the

whole of the Group, Eliot is designed

to revitalise communication about

Legrand products, wherever the

Internet of Things can provide

users with additional benefits.


OUR APPROACH

THREEPRINCIPLES

“Privacy and data security are at the core of the Eliot dynamic.”

PIERRE-YVES HASBROUCKUSER INTERFACE MARKETING MANAGER,“NEW USES AND FUNCTIONS”

1. ENHANCING THE PRODUCT’S VALUE IN USE

The aim of the Eliot program is not the production of connected devices as an end in itself. The communication capacity added to the Legrand product should permanently increase the benefit for the user.

Eliot facilitates daily life Connected objects carrying the Eliot signature can:- SIMPLIFY usage- FACILITATE maintenance- DEMOCRATISE complex functions- CUSTOMISE products according to

users’ needs, desires and habits.

Eliot also helps to respond to societal developments, particularly the quest for enhanced comfort and energy savings, increasing security needs and home care for people with loss of autonomy.

2.DESIGNING SIMPLE DEVICES THAT ARE INTUITIVE AND EASY

TO INSTALLLegrand products are characterised by their simplicity and their ease of use and installation, which are part of the Group’s DNA. These values also underlie the expansion of the Group’s connected devices. In line with our aim of ensuring “Design for all”*, Legrand connected devices are very intuitive.

3. RESPECTING THE USER

Consistent with its values, respect for the user is an imperative for Legrand. Eliot thus contributes to preserving the confidentiality of data.

A LABEL FOR ALL LEGRAND CONNECTED DEVICES

As well as a development program, Eliot is also a label. Legrand connected devices will be marked with the program logo for easy identification.

*“Design for all” refers to an approach aimed at providing products that are simply and easy to use.


OUR APPROACH

ENERGY MANAGEMENT

MEASURING AND CONTROLLING ENERGY CONSUMPTION IN COMPLETE SIMPLICITY AND FREEDOM

Designed for small commercial buildings, Legrand’s wireless

energy management offer proposes a set of smart sockets and sensors which can be used, locally or remotely, to measure energy consumption, monitor its evolution and design economy scenarios. If they wish, users can benefit from additional services, such as comparing their installation against similar ones. Key benefit: a pack that is easy to install, mobile and flexible, that allows users to decide how they wish to analyse and monitor their consumption.

EMERGENCY LIGHTING

SIMPLIFYING MAINTENANCE AND PERSONALISING DESIRED SERVICES

Legrand is exploring new self-contained emergency lighting

units which, natively connected, can simplify maintenance even further and allow for personalisation of required services.

This new generation of emergency units can monitor an entire installation remotely. Users can, if they wish, receive alert notifications on their smartphone or tablet which are easy to configure. They can also for example decide to receive the list of equipment needed for maintenance work, or automatically trigger an order for spare parts.

ELIOTIN ACTION


OUR APPROACH

PROTECTION

AVOIDING INCONVENIENCE LINKED TO UNEXPECTED POWER CUTS

Combined with a circuit breaker, Legrand’s new Stop & Go

connected control unit will allow users to be informed remotely, on their smartphone or tablet, of the status of their electrical installation and any false tripping, and give them the option, if conditions are safe enough, to reset their installation remotely.

This connected generation of Stop & Go control units can mitigate the inconvenience of unexpected power cuts, especially for appliances such as freezers, cool rooms and alarms.

SURVEILLANCE CAMERAS

EASILY IMPLEMENTING REMOTE SURVEILLANCE AND RECEIVING REAL-TIME ALERTS

When connected, the latest generations of surveillance

camera can be used to view all the installation images in real time, locally or remotely. They also offer advanced functions that users can choose to activate whenever they wish, such as detecting movement, recording, sending emails, etc. Installation is also made easier by the absence of cabling.

ELIOTIN ACTION


OUR APPROACH

UPS

BEING INFORMED OF THE STATUS OF THE EMERGENCY SYSTEM, AVOIDING OPERATING LOSSES

PDU (POWER DISTRIBUTION UNITS)

POWERING AND MONITORING ACTIVITY IN DATA CENTERS

When connected, Legrand’s UPS systems give a real-time

overview of the status of all the batteries, their capacity to take over in the event of a power cut and for how long the system can continue to work if mains power is not restored. This monitoring can be done locally or remotely. It can also be entrusted to third parties, including Legrand, who can thus offer additional services such as remote predictive maintenance.

Beyond their primary function of providing energy to servers in

data centers, connected PDUs allow to monitoring of the environment inside the 19” enclosures in whichthey are installed (energy consumption, humidity, temperature, etc.) They are also capable of transmitting data, thereby ensuring permanent monitoring of the installation status and enabling optimisation of its efficiency. By their smart features, connected PDUs also allow to take remote action by, for instance, suspending or restoring power supply to a server to reboot it.

ELIOTIN ACTION


OUR APPROACH

INTEGRATION OF NFC TECHNOLOGY

FACILITATING INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE

Combined with an Android app specifically developed by

Legrand for electricians, the gradual incorporation of NFC (Near Field Communication) connected technology into Legrand products will facilitate their implementation and maintenance.

As a result, by simply holding a smartphone up against a given product, the electrician will gain access to its installation instructions and other related technical documents. They will also be able to perform the configuration without prior wiring. Moreover, the configuration will be easy to duplicate on a different product, also

without requiring a wired connection.Similarly, by holding a smartphone up against an already installed and wired product on the electrical panel, the installer will be able to directly read the data enabling a complete diagnosis in terms of product status and any potential faults. In some cases, they can also change functions without any alteration to the wiring, to move from a remote dimmer to a remote latching relay or timer, for instance, save a scenario (e.g. children’s bedtime), or quite simply launch an update.

Close to 100 products are due to be equipped with NFC technology within the coming months.
