Meet the C wire substitute for Nest thermostats.
Nest thermostats are designed to work without a C wire in most homes. But some systems may require a C wire for consistent power. The Nest Power Connector is a simple and affordable alternative to a C wire, and costs much less than hiring an electrician to install a new C wire through your walls.

Check g.co/nest/works to find out which Nest thermostats might need the Nest Power Connector to work in your home.
