Title: Load power device, system and method of load control and management employing load identification

Patent ·
OSTI ID:1416320
; ;

A load power device includes a power input, at least one power output for at least one load, a plurality of sensors structured to sense voltage and current at the at least one power output, and a processor. The processor provides: (a) load identification based upon the sensed voltage and current, and (b) load control and management based upon the load identification.
