Abstract
An integrated electrical management system includes an electrical panel, at least one busbar mounted to the electrical panel, at least one controllable breaker electrically coupled to the at least one busbar, and processing equipment configured to process electrical signals. The processing equipment includes control circuitry configured to control the at least one controllable breaker, and one or more current sensing modules configured to sense a respective current for each of the at least one controllable breakers. The system senses currents or otherwise electrical load in branch circuit, and is configured to control the breakers on or off to control electrical load in each branch circuit. The system may receive user input, input from devices, input from other systems or network entities, or inputs from sensors, and in response determines operating parameters. Operating parameters may include on-off schedules for breakers, temporal information, fault information, or other suitable operating parameters.
