Abstract
An electrical distribution system is provided for selectively connecting an electrical power source to load devices comprising a panel and a plurality of switching devices mounted in the panel. Each switching device is electrically connectable between an electrical power source and a load device for selectively delivering electrical power to the load device. A control system controls operation of the switching devices. The control system comprises a programmed controller for commanding operation of the switching devices. The control system includes analog ports for selectively controlling analog load devices.

An electrical distribution system for selectively connecting an electrical power source to load devices, comprising:
- a panel;
- a plurality of switching devices mounted in the panel each electrically connectable between an electrical power source and a load device for selectively delivering electrical power to the load device;
- a control system for controlling operation of the switching devices, the control system comprising a programmed controller for commanding operation of the switching devices, the control system including analog ports for selectively controlling analog load devices.
An electrical distribution system for selectively connecting an electrical power source to load devices, comprising:
- a panelboard having a plurality of load circuit positions;
- a plurality of pairs of circuit breakers and switching devices each mounted in one of the load circuit positions, and each pair electrically connectable between an electrical power source and a load device for selectively delivering electrical power to load devices;
- an input/output (I/O) controller mounted in the panelboard for controlling operation of the switching devices, the I/O controller comprising a programmed controller for commanding operation of the switching devices, the control system including analog ports for selectively controlling analog load devices.
