I'm finally getting around to doing some lighting automation and I've decided to go with Simply Automated UPB. I'm a little confused about phase couplers and thought everyone here could help me out. Their website states the following:
"To ensure both phases communicate with each other, especially in homes greater than 2500 sq. ft, we highly recommend you install a Phase Coupler in the main breaker panel (and sub-panels if you have a larger home)."
My home is about 5000 sq ft and I have 200 amp service, but it's split in two sub-panels. Does this mean I would need two phase couplers? I also have a 100 amp sub-panel in my pool house. If I do lighting automation there, would I need a third coupler?
What's the best way to do this?
Thanks,
Shane
