Abstract
An energy monitoring system for retrofitting a miniature circuit breaker load center, comprises energy monitoring module, data bus, and main controller. The energy monitoring module attaches onto miniature circuit breaker, forming a combined shape that fits into a branch circuit space of the load center. An attachment connectorelectrically and mechanically connects the energy monitoring module to load terminalof the circuit breaker. An energy sensing circuitin the energy monitoring module senses energy passing through the circuit breaker and transmits data signals over the data bus to the main controller. The main controller has a shape that fits into another branch circuit space of the load center. The main controller wirelessly transmits to a network, information based on the data signals received on the data bus. The main controller provides operating power via the data bus, to the energy monitoring module.
