Claim 12:
13. An adaptive electrical power distribution panel comprising:
a wired or wireless connection to an internal or remote controller;
first input terminals configured to receive electrical power from an alternative power source;
second input terminals configured to receive electrical power from a utility electrical grid;
a plurality of output terminals, each configured to output power to a branch circuit, appliance, or device;
wherein the adaptive electrical power distribution panel is configured to continuously or periodically monitor the utility electrical grid;
when the grid power is within specifications, power a first branch circuit, appliance, or device from the alternative power source and a different, second branch circuit, appliance, or device from the utility electrical grid;
continuously or periodically monitor one or more conditions;
in response to the monitored conditions, algorithmically divide the plurality of branch circuits, appliances, or devices into a first group to receive power from the alternative power source and a second group to not receive power from the alternative power source; and
break electrical connections between the alternative power source and the branch circuits, appliances, or devices of the second group.
