摘要： A circuit breaker (such as a miniature circuit breaker) that wirelessly communicates state and fault information to a main energy monitoring module. The wireless circuit breaker includes a transceiver and a power supply that harvests energy inductively from the line current conductor without the need for a connection to a neutral conductor. The wireless circuit breaker can be implemented in the same package as existing circuit breakers, eliminating the need to replace the panel when upgrading to a system that employs a main energy monitoring module. The wireless circuit breaker can also include an energy storage device for supplying power to the circuit breaker after it has tripped, allowing the circuit breaker to transmit information after a trip. The main energy monitoring module includes a processor and a gateway for evaluating and transmitting information received from the circuit breaker to other applications, such as webpages and smartphones.

摘要翻译： 将状态和故障信息无线地传送到主能量监视模块的断路器（例如微型断路器）。 无线断路器包括收发器和电源，其从线路电流导体感应地收集能量，而不需要连接到中性导体。 无线断路器可以与现有的断路器在同一封装中实现，从而无需在升级到采用主能量监测模块的系统时更换面板。 无线断路器还可以包括用于在断路器跳闸之后向断路器供电的能量存储装置，允许断路器在跳闸之后传送信息。 主要能量监测模块包括处理器和网关，用于评估和发送从断路器接收到的信息到诸如网页和智能电话的其他应用。
