Electrical and communication system capable of providing uninterruptable power in a house
First Claim
1. A system for providing uninterruptable AC electrical power to appliances in a house comprising:
- means for inputting said AC electrical power from a location external to said house;
means for sensing input of said AC electrical power from said location external to said house;
Ac energy distributing means for distributing said AC electrical power from said inputting means throughout said house;
auxiliary power means for generating AC electrical power in close proximity to said house;
means for switching said auxiliary power means to said energy distribution means in response to a digital transfer signal;
data network means for processing and communicating digital data within the house, said network means including;
at least one transfer power block means for monitoring the state of said AC electrical power from said sensing means and generating said digital transfer signal when AC electrical power is not received from said external location; and
means for activating said switching means using said digital transfer signal to provide said AC electrical power to said energy distribution means.

Abstract
An automated system for providing different services within a house includes an appliance coordination data network for communicating relatively low speed appliance digital data within a house, a high capacity data network for transferring high speed digital data within the house, an energy distribution system for distributing energy throughout the house, an analog services distribution system for distributing conventional analog signals throughout the house and a video services distribution network for distributing video services throughout the house. The appliance coordination network interfaces with the energy distribution system to control the flow of energy to appliances throughout the house responsive to a digital request or interrogation signal that is emitted from the appliance itself.
