A building management system comprising an integrated sensor and control system integrated on a single application specific integrated circuit (ASIC). The ASIC combines sensor inputs necessary to monitor ambient light levels, light color, occupation/motion sensors, security sensors, temperature and humidity, barometric pressure, smoke and toxic substance sensors, and a processor to receive the sensor inputs and deliver control output signals to effect changes and make settings to each of the environmental systems that are monitored. The ASIC also provides human interface processing for operator control of each environmental system.

Integrated building management sensor system

An RF controlled lighting system that activates lights in adjacent spaces when a person walks into a first space and then traverses the spaces in sequence. A detection device senses the entry of a person into a first space controlled by the system. A micro-controller activates the lights in that space for immediate light and in the adjacent spaces in preparation for the person to traverse the spaces in either direction from the origin space. As the person traverses the contiguous spaces, controllers in each space sense the person's presence and communicate by RF signals to activate lights along the person's path. The controllers extinguish their lights a predetermined time after the person passes or no one enters a space.

RF controlled sequential lighting system

A control system for allowing remote control of a load. The control system includes a command controller for running a control program that provides a command signal. The command controller has a first wireless interface for transmitting the command signal on a first wireless network. A remote controller has a second wireless interface for receiving the command signals from the command controller via the first wireless network. The remote controller includes a controller for adapting the received command signals for communication on a second wireless network. The remote controller has a third wireless interface for transmitting the adapted command signals via a second wireless network to the load.

Lighting control system and method

A mounting fixture for electrical light fixture or fan comprising an assembly having an electrical box, a conducting plate, a neutral plate and a mounting plate such that the contact points on the conducting plate make contact with the contact members on the mounting plate by a spring-loading action.

An electrical plug and receptacle having safety features is provided. The plug includes a body, at least two conductors, and a skirt. The conductors extend from the body and are laterally surrounded by the skirt. The skirt is retractable into the body so that when the plug is used with a conventional receptacle, the skirt retracts into the body as the conductors are inserted the sockets of the receptacle, shielding a user from inadvertently touching the conductors. The plug further includes a toggle stop that locks the skirt into its fully extended position for using the plug with a safety electrical outlet assembly of the present invention. The safety outlet assembly includes a cover and a receptacle adapted to be secured to an electrical junction box. The receptacle has a receiver adapted to matingly engage the skirt on the safety plug. The cover is removably secured to the receptacle and includes an aperture having a periphery spaced-apart from the outer periphery of the receiver to define an opening for receiving a skirt of a safety plug.

Electrical plug and receptacle having safety features

An assembly for use with a compact fluorescent lamp includes a socket and an adapter. The socket includes a housing having a top surface and a recess extending downward from the top surface toward the bottom end of the socket. The recess is shaped and dimensioned to receive the starter housing of the compact fluorescent lamp. Provided on the top surface are a plurality of spaced apart holes, each hole being positioned to receive one of the terminal pins of the fluorescent lamp. The adapter is designed to connect the compact fluorescent lamps having different types of base configurations with the socket. The adapter includes a base from which a starter housing and a plurality of terminal pins extend downward. The starter housing is positioned to be telescopically received by the recess of the socket. The starter housing is surrounded by the terminal pins that are positioned away from one another in order to be inserted in the spaced apart holes of the socket. In one embodiment, the base may include a recess for receiving the starter housing of the compact fluorescent lamp and a plurality of spaced apart holes. Each hole is positioned to receive one of the terminal pins of the fluorescent lamp. In another embodiment, the base may have attached thereto a secondary adapter for use with the fluorescent lamp.
