Abstract

An electrical apparatus control system includes: a control apparatus that is connected to a control target electrical apparatus and functions as a small-sized base station; a wireless terminal that wirelessly connects to the control apparatus; and a server that holds target apparatus data including a list of control target electrical apparatuses set for each control apparatus. The wireless terminal acquires the target apparatus data set for the control apparatus from the server via the control apparatus, and transmits operation data for controlling a control target electrical apparatus, to the control apparatus on the basis of a performed operation. The control apparatus controls the control target electrical apparatus on the basis of the operation data received from the wireless terminal.
