Claim 18:
19. An electrical power cable, comprising:
a first end, a second end and an elongated length extending between the first end and the second end;
a power electrical conductor extending between the first end and the second end;
a first electrical contact at the first end configured to conduct electrical power from a power source to the power electrical conductor;
a second electrical contact at the second end configured to conduct the electrical power from the power electrical conductor to an electrical load;
a switch disposed in the second end between the power electrical conductor and the second electrical contact;
a relay disposed in the second end, the relay closing the switch to conduct the electrical power from the power electrical conductor to the second electrical contact, and the relay opening the switch to leave the second electrical contact electrically uncharged; and
a data line extending between the first end and the second end, the relay being controlled in response to data exchanged between the power source and the electrical load through the data line.
