  • Method and apparatus for supplying power to a load circuit from alternate electric power sources
    Patent number: 6570269
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for supplying power to a load circuit from main and alternate electric power sources involves actuating a signal-controlled selector inside a housing, at least a portion of which is received in a breaker receptacle of an electric power distribution panel such that a first conductor on the housing is operable to receive electric power from the electric power distribution panel and a second conductor on the housing is operable to receive electric power from an alternate electric power source, to selectively connect the load circuit to the first conductor on the housing or to a second conductor on the housing operable to receive electric power from an alternate electric power source, in response to a control signal.

  • Method and apparatus for distributing electric power
    Publication number: 20020135232
    Abstract: An electric power distribution system includes a first power distribution apparatus for distributing power to individual load circuits from a main power source and a second power distribution apparatus adjacent the first apparatus. The second panel has a base, an electric power distribution conductor supported by the base for providing electric power from the alternate electric power source and a load circuit selector site on the base and is operable to supply power from the main electric power source and the electric power distribution conductor to a signal-controlled selector installed at the load circuit selector site.
