Disclosed herein is a leakage protector, which includes a housing. A base plate and a brush are arranged in the housing. A first conducting strip and a second conducting strip spaced apart are arranged on the base plate. The brush is provided with contact pins to contact the first conducting strip and the second conducting strip, respectively. The second conducting strip can generate different analog voltages, and the first conducting strip is configured to transmit different analog voltages to a microprocessor. A user can drive the brush to move through an actuating part, and set the power-on time of the leakage protector in one step.

A switched power receptacle that can be programmed to provide power for a user-selected duration in a user-selected cycle. The invention can be plugged into a conventional receptacle, extension cord, or other source of power. One or more user inputs and displays are provided so that the user can program the cycle for switching on the power (once every 2 days, once every 7 days, etc.). One or more user inputs are provided so that the user can select the duration of activation for each cycle (1 hour, 3 hours, etc.). Status indicators are preferably provided so that the user can easily monitor the operation of the device.

Disclosed herein is a clothes treatment apparatus. The clothes treatment apparatus includes a drum configured to accommodate clothes, an inputter configured to receive one of a plurality of programs and configured to receive a start command, a storage configured to store information on a setting time corresponding to a weight of clothes for each program and configured to store information on a default time for each program previously executed, in the form of tables, a processor configured to detect a weight of clothes when any one program is received and a start command is received, configured to identify a setting time corresponding to the detected weight of clothes and the received program, configured to control the execution of the received program based on the identified setting time, and configured to store an operation time, which is taken until the completion of the received program, as a default time, and a display configured to display a remaining time during the execution of the received program.

A stored program interpreter or virtual machine with a reduced or simple instruction set that implements a Sequencer which allows the programming of time-dependent behavior of controlled loads or circuits such as Electronic Circuit Breaker Units (ECBUs). Programs can be dynamically loaded or modified at run-time, allowing ensemble behavior of controlled loads, such as wig-wag or de-ice heat cycling, to be implemented without a change to the embedded firmware application code.
