What We Do
Azara Energy designs and manufactures thermally monitored electrical outlets known as the Azara Outlet. The core innovation is the ability to detect overheating and automatically disconnect power directly inside the receptacle. The company is focused on providing North American homes and businesses with safer, more reliable electrical receptacles that prevent overheating right at the source.
Why It Matters
Azara Energy’s technology is needed today because modern high-current applications place significant and often dangerous stress on electrical receptacles. This sustained, high-current load can lead to premature wear, hidden heat buildup, and potential safety hazards such as overheating and home fires. Current electrical safety solutions do not fully address this specific problem at the receptacle level.
The Azara Outlet fills this critical gap by providing thermal monitoring directly inside the electrical outlet, where failures most often occur, and automatically disconnecting power at the first sign of overheating. This proactive safety measure offers peace of mind to homeowners and property managers. The need for this revolutionary product is growing with the accelerating adoption of electric vehicles and other new modern electrified technologies.
