Patent ID: 7728275

Claim:
A system comprising: a sensor device having at least one sensor adapted to monitor at least one parameter associated with a circuit and provide information on the parameter, wherein the at least one sensor includes: a non-contact voltage sensor adapted to detect a voltage level of the circuit; a visible light sensor adapted to detect a visible light level associated with the circuit, wherein the visible light sensor has a visible light sensitivity adjustment circuit to set an alarm/no alarm threshold; and an external probe that is couplable to the sensor device and adapted to detect at least one of a voltage level, a current level, continuity, a heat level, a sound level, or motion associated with the circuit; a wireless transmitter within the sensor device and coupled to the at least one sensor and adapted to transmit the information; and a receiver device having a wireless receiver adapted to be in communication with the wireless transmitter of the sensor device to facilitate association of a circuit breaker with the circuit based on the information received on the parameter being monitored.
