(57) Abstract : An electrical power control apparatus and
method for a conventional 60 hertz or other conventional
frequency electrical AC power supply voltage waveform to
prove an effective output current and voltage to an intended load
whereby the output frequency is the same as the input
frequency. Using a switching means (16) capable of micro
switching the current on and off, and a plurality of substantially
equal length and duration interruptions of current on both sides
of an AC current oscillation, the output effective voltage and
resulting current may be preset and controlled to a preprogrammed
output level regardless of input voltage having one
or more phases. Or, the output voltage and resulting current may
be continually monitored with the load (22) integrated into the
circuit being monitored and continually adjusted to yield
( Figure: 03 )
maximum power use
savings while avoiding damage to the components attached to the circuit. Additional embodiments provide for use of the
micro chopping device as a circuit breaker (32) for over current protection and as a smart circuit breaker to yield a data
stream on individual circuit power usage which can be communicated to a monitoring station locally or by electronic
transmission of information to a remote monitoring station. Real time monitoring and adjustment of power usage may be
accomplished using such communication and two way communication between the device and communicating
monitoring station also allow for real time charges for power usage and deduction from prepaid account for real time
power usage.
