A power distribution and timing device (PDTD) for controlling power supply to controlled device(s). This invention includes: an outlet; an alarm clock; a backup battery; a keyboard; a tamper switch; a display for showing day, time, modes of operation, programming steps, operational time remaining, warning signals and tamper attempts; and a microprocessor. The microprocessor includes: an integrated circuit for setting maintenance power to the controlled device(s); a program for securely programming the days and time periods when the controlled device(s) may be operated and the amount of time that the controlled device(s) may be operated; securely allowing power to the controlled device(s) to be increased to operating level when these time periods are not exceeded; and keeping power to the controlled devices at maintenance level when these time periods are exceeded. One or more of the outlets may be remote from the microprocessor and signals may be sent to such remote outlets via conventional means.
