Abstract: A method and a system for remotely managing and controlling one or more utility appliances provide an appliance management system (AMS) accessible on a user device and operably communicating with an appliance control device via a local network. The appliance control device operably communicates with and controls the utility appliances via a load terminal relay unit and communicates an activation status of each utility appliance to the AMS via the local network. The appliance control device receives appliance control data for controlling one or more utility appliances based on the communicated activation status from the AMS via the local network. The appliance control device processes the received control data to generate a control data signal for indicating one or more actions to be performed by the utility appliances and transmits the generated control data signal to the load terminal relay unit for actuating the utility appliances to perform the actions.
