SENSOR-BASED ENERGY MANAGEMENT ENCLOSURE AND DISTRIBUTED ENERGY RESOURCE MANAGEMENT BASED ON SENSOR DATA

A power system of a consumer premises includes a circuit breaker to provide power to an electrical circuit and a current sensor mounted proximate a connection of the circuit breaker. The current sensor generates data that a controller uses to compute current draw for the circuit fed by the circuit breaker. Based on the current draw information, the controller can determine how much real and reactive power is being drawn by individual circuits. The controller can use that information to trigger a power converter to adjust operation to change the quadrant of operation of the current vector.
