Embodiment Construction

[0083] figure 1 and 2 A power control device 5 for controlling power to a plurality of electric devices is shown. In this particular embodiment, the power control device 5 is in the form of an electrical extension or distribution panel. However, it will be appreciated that the power control device 5 may be implemented in alternative forms, such as a wall socket or floor port configuration.

[0084] The power control device 5 includes a power inlet 10 , a plurality of power outlets 15 a - 15 h , a processor 20 , a memory 25 and a communication system 30 . The power inlet 10 is connected to a plug for connection to the mains supply. The power inlet 10 is connected to each of a plurality of power outlets 15a-15h through respective relays 35a-35h and monitors 40a-40h in the form of ammeters. Each relay 35a - 35h is operable under the control of the processor 20 to selectively connect and disconnect the associated power outlet 15a - 15h with the power inlet 10 . Each monitor 4...

Abstract

A power control device 5 in the form of an electrical extension strip or wall socket comprises a mains power inlet 10, a plurality of outlets 15a-15h, a processor 20, memory 25 and communications system 30. Outlets 15a-15h are divided into operational groups of peripheral sockets 15a-15f, master socket 15g and persistent socket 15h, where peripheral sockets 15a-15f are the first to be powered down following a period of inactivity. Power to an appliance attached to the master socket 15g, such as a computer, is controlled so as to place the appliance in standby mode following a further period of inactivity. A push button or software agent running on an attached appliance can be used to manually trigger a power saving state via the communications system 30. The communication system 30 may also be used to transmit operational and / or power usage data stored on memory 25 to a network or internet cloud or can allow remote access to the power control device 5.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a device for saving energy and / or increasing safety of electrical equipment. Background technique [0002] As energy costs and demands increase, many companies and consumers are looking for ways to reduce their energy consumption. In addition, many governments have committed to greenhouse gas emission reduction measures, such as those required by the Kyoto Protocol. However, since many environmentally friendly energy generation technologies are not yet in the commercial stage, or suffer from problems such as supply interruptions or opposition to planning due to their visual impact on the environment, measures to reduce energy consumption and improve efficiency are increasingly being sought. More and more are considered to have a crucial contribution to meeting this type of goal. [0003] Within the home and work environment, power consumption by devices such as computers, monitors, printers, etc. is one area where these energ...
