Abstract: A portable electrical energy power node is provided. The power node includes first and second input power terminals and first and second output power terminals. The input power terminals are adapted for receiving a source of electrical power and the output terminals are adopted for connecting to a load. A first power line connects the first input terminal to the first output terminal, a second power line connects the second input terminal to the input side of a circuit interrupter and a third power line connects the output side of the circuit interrupter to the second output terminal. The circuit interrupter selectively interrupts the connection between the second input terminal and the second output terminal in accordance with a fault sensor and a control unit.

Abstract: A system for hazard mitigation in a structure including a subsystem coupled to a circuit of an electrical distribution system and set of nodes. The nodes monitor operating conditions of the circuit and generate data in response. A data processing system is operable to process the data generated by the set of nodes and in response identify a trigger representing a condition requiring that an action be taken. The data processing system processes the trigger in accordance with a predetermined policy to initiate an action by the subsystem.

Abstract: In at least some embodiments, a system includes a plurality of circuit breakers and trip control logic external to and coupled to the circuit breakers. The trip control logic enables a plurality of different tripping options to be selected for each of the circuit breakers.
