Abstract

A controller for controlling the utilization of resources within a zone having a housing having an interior carrying a barrier for utilization in defining a line voltage compartment delineated from a low voltage compartment within said housing interior. A power control board is carried within the line voltage compartment for receiving line voltage. A low voltage board is carried within the low voltage compartment for communicating with low voltage components. A controller board is carried by the housing for receiving data associated with the low voltage components and receiving line voltage from the line power control board. A first cover encloses a first portion of the interior of the housing for defining the line voltage compartment. A second cover encloses a second portion of the interior of the housing for defining the low voltage compartment.
