A smart-grid residential service (SRS) uses connected sensors for integrated service monitoring and control of home appliances via the Internet and an in-home PLC network. Such sensors collect power usage information and include an intelligent master device and any of a communication enabled switch, a ZigBee® enabled switch, and a power control switch, each of which operate over a power line communication (PLC) network. The master collects, compiles, and communicates collected data to the network. The SRS provides infrastructure, i.e. communication, IP-TV, climatic control, etc. monitoring and control, power monitoring and control of connection enabled home appliances, other utility usage monitoring, and security monitoring and control. The SRS also provides billing and collection information for the monitored utilities to utility companies.
