As a mid-sized company, Cheil Electric manufactures and develops wiring devices, smart wiring systems, circuit breakers, magnetic contactors, distribution panels, and smart distribution panels—core network components for implementing Internet of Things (IoT)-based smart homes. The company supplies these products to domestic construction companies and continues to develop innovative products such as IoT wiring devices, voice-recognition smart switches, and full-touch switches.

Beyond its existing supply of arc fault circuit interrupter (AFCI) products to Eaton’s Residential Division, Cheil Electric has expanded its business by partnering with Eaton’s "Connected Solutions" division to supply PCB assemblies. These assemblies are key components of Eaton's Smart Breaker 2.0, and Cheil Electric is recognized as a top-tier supplier in the U.S. through this collaboration.
In the smart home sector, the company is particularly focusing on radar sensor-based smart care systems, which are expected to become a major driver of future sales.
