Abstract

The present invention relates to a power switch, data system, interface and a data structure for controlling power outlets on one or more power switches. Each power switch comprises a sensor bus and watt meters in order to be able to monitor power consumption and environmental changes. Furthermore the power switches comprises a memory and a processor in order to be able to automatically control the power outlets without interference from a user terminal.
