Electrical control system, in particular for home automation systems
An electrical control system, in particular for home automation systems, includes at least one electronic switching device including a switching module (10) which includes a switching circuit, including at least one controlled switch which allows a selective implementation of a switch configuration, a diverter configuration or an inverter configuration and a plurality of terminals which allow the connection of the switching module to an external electrical system. The switching module allows selective application of the switch configuration of the switching circuit or diverter configuration of the switching circuit or inverter configuration of the switching circuit to terminals in a partial way, or total way, or to implement a total separation to said terminals.
Power/data access module
An assembly for providing access to an opening in a table includes an electrical module including a support panel carrying one or more electrical power sockets and/or data ports and a cable carrying electrical power and/or data wires connectable to the sockets/ports. The assembly further includes an access module that includes a grommet mountable to the table within the opening. The grommet including a flange defining a pair of opposing channels configured to slidably receive the support panel therein so that the one or more sockets/ports are accessible through the grommet when the access module is mounted to the table.
Bracket system for mounting electrical boxes
A bracket system for mounting an electrical box and other components to a ceiling structure can include a support bar and a mounting bracket. The mounting bracket can be configured to receive an end of the support bar and selectively secure the support bar at any of a plurality of positions relative to the mounting bracket.

Wall Box Providing Adjustable Support for a Control Device
A wall box may provide adjustable support for a control device, such as a keypad, to allow for level alignment of the control device when mounted to the wall box. The wall box may have an adjustable support frame to which the control device may be mounted. When the control device is mounted to the support frame of the wall box, the support frame may be rotated to adjust the alignment of the control device. In addition, the wall box may comprise one or more projections configured to be received in respective detents in notched surfaces of the control device to allow for adjustment of the alignment of the control device. Further, the wall box may have a modular assembly and may be constructed from a central portion and two side portions at the time of installation of the wall box.
Modular power distribution system
A modular power distribution system, comprising a client device configured to be inserted into a host device, and having a series of independently configurable electrical connections and predetermined electrical connections connecting the host device, the client device, and a cable to deliver power from the cable to a peripheral of the client. A modular power distribution system, comprising a host device having first and second compartments, the second compartment being dimensioned to automatically align the client electrical coupler with the host electrical coupler and form a protective barrier while the client electrical coupler is in contact with the host electrical coupler. A modular power distribution system comprising a multi-gang host device and a client assembly, and having a series of independently configurable electrical connections and predetermined electrical connections connecting the multi-gang host device, the client assembly, and a cable(s) to deliver power from the cable the client assembly.
User-upgradeable load control network
In one embodiment, a configurable system may be capable of verification and include a modular control unit configured to control power. The modular control unit may include a first contact element configured to receive the power, a backplate, and at least one device control assembly. Other embodiments may include a system configured for dynamically assignable pairings. Further embodiments may include a backplate configured to control power to at least one load device, the backplate including one or more power control elements. Additional embodiments may include a system including a receptacle. The system with the receptacle may include a modular control unit, a backplate, a contact element, and at least one device control assembly configured to be removably coupled to the backplate.

Power Sharing Device
A power sharing device allows a single high voltage electric socket to be shared with one or more appliances and an EV charger. The device can be easily installed and used without updating the electric circuit of the dwelling. The device senses the load of the appliance socket(s) and automatically disconnects the EV charger socket if significant current is being drawn by the appliance(s). The device may also include a circuit breaker to prevent current overload of the electric circuit. These and other features of the device provide improved safety relative to existing solutions.
