"The Ting features an easy installation -- no wiring or electricians involved. You only need to plug it in to get it started. Once you download the Ting mobile app, you can connect the sensor to Wi-Fi. You have to wait a few weeks for the Ting to familiarize itself with your home's electrical system before it gives you consistent status updates."
"Ting detects electrical issues that you would otherwise not know about, which could potentially start a fire. These could include loose or damaged connections, like frayed cords, worn insulation, overloads, and faulty equipment. Aside from detecting significant issues in electricity, Ting can detect arcing, tiny electrical sparks that can happen due to age, poor installation, or bad construction. These scintillations are early warning signs that turn into bigger issues down the road, like tripped breakers or electrical fires."
The Ting smart sensor plugs into a home outlet and connects to Wi‑Fi via a mobile app, requiring no wiring or electrician. The sensor learns the home's electrical baseline over a few weeks before providing consistent status updates. It monitors electrical current continuously, including wiring, outlets, appliances, incoming power, voltage, outages, and storm-related risks. It detects loose or damaged connections, overloads, faulty equipment, and arcing—tiny electrical sparks that signal early-stage problems. The sensor alerts homeowners to issues that could escalate to tripped breakers or electrical fires, offering an accessible way to gain insight into home electrical safety.
