ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to an electrical distribution system for energizing a plurality of electric circuits in accordance with a predetermined delay pattern. The system as described comprises a control unit, a plurality of circuit delay arrangements each associated with an electrical circuit individual thereto and each circuit delay arrangement is identifiable by a circuit code individual thereto and includes a pulse counting arrangement. The control unit is arranged to transmit the circuit codes to the circuit delay arrangements and the pulse count individual to each circuit code, and each circuit delay arrangement identified by its circuit code is arranged to store the pulse count individual to that code. On receipt of a start signal from the control unit, transmitted simultaneously to all the circuit delay arrangements, each circuit delay arrangement starts its respective pulse counting arrangement and energizes its respective electrical circuit when the pulse count is completed.
