<p>A system for load control in an electrical power system is described, whe rein one or more temperature-monitoring devices are provided to control powe r service to relatively high-load devices such as, for example, pool pumps, electric water heaters, electrics ovens etc. When ambient temperatures are r elatively high, and thus, electrical power demands from air conditioning sys tems are relatively high, the temperature-monitoring devices can remove powe r from the controlled device during the hottest portions of the day. The tem perature-monitoring devices can provide power to the controlled devices duri ng the cooler portions of the day. During heat waves or other periods of rel atively continuous high heat, the temperature-monitoring devices can schedul e power to the controlled devices to reduce overall power demands and to run the controlled devices during the cooler portions of the day when air condi tioning electrical loads are reduced.</p> |
