Abstract: A system for displaying an electronic representation of the consumption of a resource by a device comprises a communication network, a database, and visual display. The database is accessible by an information processor of the network and stores information including a maximum rated amount of the resource consumed by the at least one device and the actual amount of the resource consumed by the at least one device. The visual display provides an electronic representation of the resource, the amount of the resource consumed by the at least one device and the amount of the resource saved as a function of the electronic device information, wherein the visual display presents the electronic representation in a graphical format. The graphical format of the electronic representation is a graph formatted with a range of values and an indicator of an indicated value in the range.

Abstract: A plurality of spaced ceiling mounted fixtures or other controllable electrical appliances have radiation detectors mounted within each fixture and wired internally of the fixture to a dimming circuit or to a ballast. The radiation detectors have sensitivity over a wide angle and have elongated plastic radiation conduction rods which extend to or beyond the plane of the lens of the fixture to be located free of shadow effects of reflections of the fixture lens. A flexible end light fiber optics can be used in place of the acrylic rods. A narrow beam radiation transmitter selectively illuminates one of the rods or end light fiber optics without illuminating the others. The dimming circuits or ballasts within the fixtures can be further controlled by external dimmers, occupancy sensors, timeclocks, photosensors and other types of input devices. The radiation detector and ballast can occupy a common housing and share the same power supply and circuit board.

Abstract: A plurality of spaced ceiling mounted fixtures or other controllable electrical appliances have wide angle radiation detectors mounted within each fixture and wired internally of the fixture to a dimming circuit or to a ballast. The radiation detectors have sensitivity over a wide angle and are fixed over a small opening in the fixture. A narrow beam radiation transmitter selectively illuminates one of the radiation detectors without illuminating the others. The dimming circuits or ballasts within the fixtures can be further controlled by external dimmers, occupancy sensors, timeclocks, photosensors and other types of input devices.
