ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for routine monitoring and automatic reporting of electrical power and gas utility usage also provides means for detecting and reporting to the relevant utility companies, fire department, and other emergency responders the development of local hazards on premises at which one or more utility usage meters are installed, including the occurrence of a fire, a gas leak, or any other circumstances such as medical emergencies that demand fast response. Such reporting can include automatic reporting of both zero or excess electrical current draw or zero or excess gas usage. The system is clock driven, fully programmable, and expandable to such other types of sensors as would detect and report on such circumstances as the presence of noxious materials as in a chem/bio attack. A permanent record of all reported events is made.
