Load information display device and circuit breaker
First Claim
1. A load information display device connected with a plurality of measuring instruments to measure the load information including the current, voltage, power, wattage and power factor of an electrical circuit, comprising:
- a means for storing the load information measured by said measuring instruments;
a means for displaying said stored load information;
a means for selecting the items displayed on said display means; and
digital signal communication means of two types including a first digital signal communication means connectable with a plurality of devices to acquire and display the load information measured by said measuring instruments and a second digital signal communication means connectable with a plurality of devices connected to a central processing unit to record and centrally managing the load information measured by said measuring instrument;
wherein a communication protocol to acquire the load information measured by said plurality of the measuring instruments and a communication protocol to transmit the load information measured by said plurality of the measuring instruments to the central processing unit for recording and centrally managing the load information are shared with each other; and
wherein a request is received from the central processing unit for the load information to be recorded and centrally managed, a request for the load information is issued from the central processing unit to the measuring instruments connected to the separated communication circuits, and the information acquired from the measuring instruments are transmitted to the central processing unit.

Abstract
This invention is intended to reduce the cost by displaying the load information of a plurality of circuits with a single display device and transferring one of the two communication units in the measuring instruments from the measuring instruments to the display device to acquire the load information of a plurality of circuits. The display device and the measuring instruments are separated from each other, and the display device includes a plurality of communications units connectable with a plurality of devices, while each of many measuring instruments includes a single communication unit.
