Patent number: 11895449Abstract: Power pedestals that are configured with an internal metering assembly that includes a meter socket allows for remote monitoring of power usage. The power pedestals also include a display that can display information regarding parameters of the power pedestals and/or current users. The power pedestals can include transceivers and can wirelessly communicate with mobile devices of various users and a remote monitoring station.Type: GrantFiled: August 30, 2021Date of Patent: February 6, 2024Assignee: EATON INTELLIGENT POWER LIMITEDInventors: Paul D. Seff, Jason D. Easton

Patent number: 11817680Abstract: Power pedestals with individual per side ground fault mains allow for service of breakers and receptacles without interrupting power to adjacent in-use power circuits and or boaters. In turn, ground fault mains eliminate the need for individual ground fault breakers tied to each receptacle. The power pedestals also allow for use of reverse Y adapters in the vessel to pedestal connection and allow for serviceability of single side or whole pedestal without disconnecting power to a string of pedestals on a loop feed circuits and can reduce overall cost of maintenance by eliminating costly individual ground fault breakers per-shore power connection.Type: GrantFiled: August 30, 2021Date of Patent: November 14, 2023Assignee: EATON INTELLIGENT POWER LIMITEDInventors: Paul D. Seff, Jason D. Easton, Andrew Van Fossen

Patent number: 11264767Abstract: A power pedestal is described. The power pedestal includes a plurality of receptacles that are configured to connect to external devices. The plurality of receptacles includes a first receptacle and a second receptacle of the plurality of receptacles. The first receptacle and the second receptacle are electrically interlocked with one another. The power pedestal includes a first circuit breaker connected to the first receptacle and a second circuit breaker connected to the second receptacle, and a shunt trip circuit that is configured to trip the first circuit breaker to disable power to the first receptacle of the power pedestal, responsive to the second circuit breaker associated with the second receptacle of the power pedestal being in an active state. Related devices and methods are also described.Type: GrantFiled: September 23, 2019Date of Patent: March 1, 2022Assignee: EATON INTELLIGENT POWER LIMITEDInventors: Cory Robert Weeks, Jason D. Easton, Jeffery Scott Kuykendall, Michel Rivas, Paul D. Seff
