SMART POWER MANAGEMENT SYSTEM AND METHOD THEREOF
First Claim
1. A smart power management system, suitable for use for monitoring power consumption of an electrical appliance and adapted for power-saving management, comprising:
- a power management apparatus, comprising;
a display unit, receiving a first control signal for displaying;
a memory unit, preprogrammed default information and stored signal information;
a first wireless module, receiving a second wireless signal or generating a first wireless signal based on a second control signal;
a first processing unit, being electrically connected to the display unit, the memory unit and the first wireless module, receiving the second wireless signal and generating the first control signal accordingly or storing the signal information contained within the second wireless signal, or alternatively computing and comparing the default information with the signal information, thereby generating the second control signal;
an electric socket device, including;
a power output unit for supplying electric power;
a switch unit, being electrically connected to the power output unit for controlling the power output unit to enable power supply or stop power supply based on a third control signal;
a second wireless module, receiving the first wireless signal, or generating the second wireless signal based on a fourth control signal; and
a second processing unit, being electrically connected to the switch unit and the second wireless module so as to generate the fourth control signal or receiving the first wireless signal thereby accordingly generating the third control signal;
whereby, the first wireless module and the second wireless module are capable of transmitting and receiving signals mutually, so that the power management apparatus controls the electric socket device to be in a conduction state or in a cutoff state in accordance with the third control signal.

Abstract
The present invention provides a smart power management system, comprising a power management apparatus and at least one electric socket device. The plurality of electric socket devices produce a second wireless signal according to power consumption, and the power management apparatus receives the second wireless signal and computes relevant cost or the carbon footprint information shown on a display unit for reference. In addition, the power management apparatus also compares a setup signal inputted by a user to the second wireless signal, the electricity cost or the carbon footprint information to produce a first wireless signal, thereby controlling the plurality of electric socket devices for providing power supply or stopping power supply.
