Abstract This invention provides a system for monitoring power consumption of a plurality of electrical devices, the system including: means for communicating with an energy saving device of the type permitting energisation of a plurality of electrical devices from a single mains supply electrical outlet, the energy saving device having: a plurality of controlled electrical outlets and a single electrical input adapted to connect to a mains supply electrical output; and switch means adapted to connect electrical supply from the mains supply electrical outlet to each of the controlled electrical outlets in response to a sensed state of at least one of the electrical devices; monitoring means for monitoring power consumption of the controlled electrical outlets; and output means for outputting data relating to the monitored power consumption. Preferably, the system of the invention includes control means for enabling control of power consumption of the electrical devices in response to the data output of monitored power consumption. More preferably, the control means enables adjustment of settings of the energy saving device in response to the data output of monitored power consumption. |
