A power controller includes an input power terminal, an output power terminal, a power switching circuit connected between the input power terminal and the output power terminal, a detection circuit connected to the power switching circuit, one or more data interfaces, and a control device connected to the detection circuit and the one or more data interfaces. The detection circuit measures a load current and a current squared time (I2t) value between the input power terminal and the output power terminal. The control device automatically turns the power switching circuit “OFF” whenever the load current exceeds a first value or the current squared time value exceeds a second value or an “OFF” signal is received from the one or more data interfaces, and automatically turns the power switching circuit “ON” whenever an “ON” signal is received from the one or more data interfaces. |
