Abstract: A system in accordance with the present invention interconnects a plurality of devices for electrical power, control, signal, and data transmission. The system includes a single source of components providing complete interconnectivity between a first number of devices. The single source of components provides complete interconnectivity between the first number of devices and a second number of devices augmenting the first number of devices.

Abstract: A conveyor conveys objects. The conveyor includes a plurality of sections, a first control panel, and a second control panel. The plurality of sections define the structure of the conveyor. Each of the plurality of sections has components for controlling the mechanical operation of each section. The controller controls and powers the conveyor. The first control panel provides control and power to a first group of four of the plurality of sections. The first control panel provides power to the components of the first group. The second control panel provides control and power to a second group of four of the plurality of sections. The second control panel provides power to the components of the second group. The modular interconnectivity components interconnect the controller, the first control panel, the second control panel, the first group, and the second group. The controller provide control and power to the first control panel and the second control panel.

Abstract: A control system (60) controls a material handling system and has a first control module (120), a second control module (140), and a third control module (160). The first module (120) includes a first control cabinet (12) for providing primary control to the first module (120), a first external component (20) for controlling an equipment component of the material handling system, and a modular interconnectivity component (30) for interconnecting the first control cabinet (12) and the first external component (20) for control of the first external component (20). The control system (60) further includes a first internal component (20) for operating the first control cabinet (12) and a modular interconnectivity component (30). The first module (120) has primary control of the second module (140) and the third module (160).

Abstract: A system distributes power. The system includes a hub for providing a specific power criteria and a trunk for transferring power from the hub a power consuming device. A first branch, a second branch, and a third branch transfer power from the trunk. The system has a first condition wherein the first branch transfers power to a first pass-thru receptacle, a second pass thru receptacle, and a first sub-branch. The first sub-branch includes a first twig and a second twig. The second twig powers the power consuming device. The second branch, in the first condition, transfers power to a third pass-thru receptacle and a fourth non-pass-thru receptacle. The third branch, in the first condition, transfers power to a first switch and a fifth pass-thru receptacle. The first switch controls power to a second sub-branch. The system further has a second condition for modularly augmenting the first condition by adding a fourth branch, a fifth branch, and a sixth branch.
