In the SPAN Home App, there is an option to set certain circuits as “Always On.“ Circuits marked as “Always on” should include essential items such as internet routers, modems, smoke alarms, or surge protectors. This helps to ensure you have a smooth backup experience and a consistent internet connection, even during an outage.
Homeowners are able to make adjustments to these settings through their SPAN Home App at any time. Instructions for updating “Always on” circuits will differ depending on the panel you have:

CONSIDERATIONS FOR ALWAYS ON
Please keep the following in mind when setting up your “Always On” breakers:
- We recommend only marking circuits with critical services needed to maintain the smart capabilities of your panel as “Always On.” This includes networking equipment.
- If you have multiple circuits with networking equipment, you’ll want to mark each of these as “Always On.”
- Circuits marked as “Always on” cannot be turned off with Home App circuit controls.
- For sites with SPAN and a compatible storage systems, circuits marked “Always on” will automatically be marked as a Must Have Backup Priority and this cannot be adjusted.
- Any circuits marked as an oversized load by your installer cannot be set as “Always on” and will not be backed up during an outage.
- For SPAN 40/48 panels, you’ll only be able to mark up to 5 circuits as “Always On.”
