Abstract :
A novel energy management telecontroller system is developed for modern homes based on power line communication at a central frequency of 125 KHz. The system consists of one central telecontroller unit (CTU) and up to 256 device controller units (DCUs). The operation range is around 100 m and can be extended using relay units. The telecontroller parameters are analysed, samples of its operation mode are described and its important features are discussed
