摘要:
A filler element or insert for installation in a decorator-type wall plate when the latter are used to cover mounting boxes containing standard electrical controls, the insert being a substantially rectangular element dimensioned to fit within the central opening in the wall plate. The insert in turn includes an aperture usually centrally disposed therein, the latter aperture being shaped and dimensioned to accommodate the extending or projecting portion of a desired electrical control. The insert also includes means disposed on its edge portion for providing a luminance mask or visual discontinuity between the front surface of the decorator plate and the front surface of the insert. Means are provided for securing the insert in the aperture in the wall plate.
摘要:
A load control system for a building having a heating and cooling system and a window located in a space of the building is operable to control a motorized window treatment in response to a demand response command in order to attempt to reduce the power consumption of the heating and cooling system. When the window may be receiving direct sunlight, the motorized window treatment closes a fabric covering the window when the heating and cooling system is cooling the building, and opens the fabric when the heating and cooling system is heating the building. In addition, when the space is unoccupied and the heating and cooling system is heating the building, the motorized window treatment may open the fabric if the window may be receiving direct sunlight, and may close the fabric if the window may not be receiving direct sunlight.
摘要:
A dimmer switch for controlling the amount of power delivered to and thus the intensity of a lighting load comprises a visual display operable to provide a visual indication representative of energy savings and usage information. The dimmer switch comprises an intensity adjustment actuator, such as a slider knob or a rotary knob, which may be coupled to a potentiometer for adjusting the amount of power delivered to the lighting load. The potentiometer may comprise a dual potentiometer including a resistive element and a conductive element having a cut. The visual display may comprise a single visual indicator, which may be illuminated a first color, such as green, when the intensity of the lighting load is less than or equal to the eco-level intensity, and illuminated a second different color, such as red, when the intensity of the lighting load is greater than the eco-level intensity.
