HOUSE FACILITY MONITORING AND CONTROL SYSTEM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To flexibly and quickly correspond to a change in market needs and function improvement of house facilities and to save energy by demand control while suppressing cost. SOLUTION: House facilities are controlled and monitored separately in a plurality of sub systems SSn, and the plurality of sub systems SSn constitute a network in a house which uses a general-purpose communication protocol. Since the sub systems SSn are connected to each other through the network in the house, the network in the house can correspond to a change in market needs and the function improvement of house facilities more flexibly and quickly than the conventional practice in which all of the house facilities are connected to one master unit. When a measured value of working current measured by a current measuring instrument D exceeds a predetermined upper limit, energy can be saved by demand control while suppressing cost because a sub system SS1 is provided with an equipment controller C1 for turning off at least one piece of equipment Xm.
