1. An electrical system comprising:

  • a power input;

    at least one power output configured to be electrically coupled to at least one load;

    a first user input device configured to provide a start up input;

    a second user input device configured to provide a time select input; and

    an internal assembly comprising;

    a power switch module electrically coupled between the power input and the at least one power output, the power switch module being configured to receive a first power signal from the power input and comprising a control mechanism configured to open and close to regulate a flow of the first power signal to the at least one power output;

    a power conserve module electrically coupled to the power switch module, the power conserve module being configured to receive the first power signal from the power switch module, to receive the start up input from the first user input device, and to attenuate the first power signal to a second power signal and a third power signal at different times;

    a power supply module electrically coupled between the power switch module and the power conserve module, the power supply module being configured to receive the second power signal and the third power signal at different times from the power conserve module, to convert the second power signal into a fourth power signal and a fifth power signal, to convert the third power signal into a sixth power signal and a seventh power signal, and to provide the fourth power signal and the sixth power signal at different times to the power switch module;

    a control module electrically coupled between the power supply module and the power switch module, the control module being configured to receive the fifth power signal and the seventh power signal at different times from the power supply module and to receive the time select input from the second user input device.
