Assignee: BUYERS PRODUCTS COMPANY
Field: Electrical machinery, apparatus, energy (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 5:
6. A control method, comprising:
measuring a current level drawn from an electrical component to produce a sensor current level;
storing a threshold current level value in a memory component;
comparing the sensor current level to the threshold current level value stored in the memory component
indicating when the threshold current level value is exceeded, thereby indicating e a high current level;
a learning mode for establishing the threshold current level value stored in the memory component, wherein the learning mode comprises:
detecting a measured current level from the electrical component;
entering an offset current level value indicative of a high additional current;
adding the measured current level and the offset current level value together to define the threshold current level value; and
storing the threshold current level value in the memory component.
