System and method for controlling an electrical receptacle

A power system comprising:

• a load terminal configured to electrically connect to a load device;
• a transceiver configured to receive, from the load device, a state of charge of the load device and a unique identifier to discern the load device from other load devices of the same model;
• and
• an electronic processor configured to
• receive, via the transceiver, the state of charge of the load device and the unique identifier,
• determine a charging history based on the unique identifier,
• determine a predetermined threshold based on the charging history of the load device,
• supply power, via the load terminal, to the load device,
• discontinue supply of power to the load device when the state of charge of the load device is at or above the predetermined threshold, and
• enter a standby mode upon discontinuing supply of power to the load device, wherein when in standby mode the electronic processor, at predetermined time intervals, determines if the state of charge of the load device is below the predetermined threshold.
