Problems solved by technology

Furthermore, this approach is not always guaranteed to attract the attention of nearby residents, and such systems have been shown not to significantly reduce the incidence of home fires
Additionally, residents often have no way of knowing what is happening in a home if the occupants of the home are away, and it may be weeks before residents truly understand the parameters detected and the potentially damaging effects of the fire.

Embodiment Construction

[0054] figure 1 An electrical safety device 100 according to the invention is shown. The electrical safety device 100 includes: a socket 120 arranged to accommodate an electrical plug of an electrical appliance; and a thermal sensor 110 arranged to detect a surface temperature of the electrical plug when the electrical plug is received in the socket 120 of the electrical safety device 100 . Electrical safety device 100 also includes a processor (inside the device, and not depicted) in communication with thermal sensor 110 and configured to determine when a sensed surface temperature of an electrical plug received in receptacle 120 exceeds a predetermined threshold . Since the thermal sensor 110 is arranged to detect the surface temperature of an electrical plug received in the socket 120, the electrical safety device 100 allows early detection of dangerous conditions that may lead to a fire. In particular, the leading cause of house fires is overheating due to electrical fau...

Abstract

An electrical safety device is described which includes a socket arranged to receive an electrical plug of an electrical appliance to connect a current supply to the electrical appliance, a thermal sensor arranged to detect the surface temperature of an electrical plug when received in the socket and a processor in communication with the thermal sensor, the processor configured to determine when the sensed surface temperature exceeds a predetermined threshold. The invention also includes an electrical safety system comprising the electrical safety device configured to communicate with a remote device. The device and system provide early detection of electrical faults and hazards to reduce the risk of fires.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an electrical safety device for detecting the presence of an electrical hazard and a system of multiple interconnected electrical safety devices for detecting and addressing an electrical hazard. Background technique [0002] In recent years, the fire risk due to the malfunction of household appliances has received increasing attention. According to reports, 40% of accidental house fires are caused by electrical appliances and power supply. Many of these fires are caused by small power surges or changes in environmental conditions, which could be mitigated if detected and addressed at an earlier stage. As such, in the modern era, more and more household appliances require a constant electrical connection, so measures must be taken to ensure the safety of the users and residents of the households using such appliances. [0003] One approach is to install sensors in homes to detect parameters (such as smoke, CO, CO2 or ...
