Abstract

Temperature monitoring and safety control for an electrical outlet is disclosed. An electrical wall receptacle may incorporate temperature monitoring and electrical disconnect that may be used to prevent an electrical outlet from overheating, such as while operating under relatively high current applications for prolonged periods. At least one temperature sensor may be used to indicate temperature associated with one or more terminals. A controller may receive an indication of a measured temperature, and based on the indicated temperature, control at least one switch to either connect or disconnect one or more electrical connections between an input power and output power terminals.
