Model: P125
A compact US Wi-Fi plug with Apple HomeKit support and local control on your home network. Bluetooth is used for setup. Use the firmware offered for your hardware revision before HomeKit pairing. Home Assistant compatibility depends on the connection path; P125 and Matter-enabled P125M are separate models.

What to know about this device before choosing a connection.
A recommendation is not recorded yet. Compare the requirements below with your home and the capabilities you need.
Documentation reviewed October 9, 2026. Local Wi-Fi must remain available during an internet outage. Use the hardware-matched firmware offered in the Tapo app; no universal minimum version is claimed. Plug-in device: neutral-wire installation does not apply. Optional dimming and energy-monitoring values remain unverified. Schedules, countdown timers, Away Mode and compact design are documented for the Tapo product/app. These app options do not establish their exposure through the Home Assistant HomeKit Device path. P125 and the Matter-enabled P125M remain separate products. US maximum-load specification: 15 A and 1800 W at 120 V for general-use/resistive loads; the separate motor limit is 1/6 HP. Appliance-specific limits can be lower. Follow the exact unit documentation.
Check your ecosystem, then choose a connection method for its requirements and available controls.
A listed ecosystem is a starting point. Connection methods and exposed capabilities must be checked for the exact variant.
