Patent ID: 7554454

Claim:
A system for detecting the location of at least one circuit breaker switch amongst a plurality of circuit breaker switches disposed within a circuit breaker box and associated with a plurality of electrical circuits each having at least one electrical receptacle, the system comprising: a detection assembly including a processor and a plurality of detector circuits each having an associated sensor in communication with the processor; the detection assembly mountable in relation to the circuit breaker box such that the sensor of each of the detector circuits is disposed adjacent to and independently associated with one of the circuit breaker switches; and a transceiver capable of: being plugged into the electrical receptacle of one of the plurality of electrical circuits; transmitting a predetermined signal through one of the plurality of circuit breaker switches associated with the electrical circuit having the electrical receptacle into which the transceiver is plugged; and receiving an indicator signal caused to be generated by the detector circuit adjacent the circuit breaker switch associated with the electrical circuit having the electrical receptacle into which the transceiver is plugged; the indicator signal indicating the one of the plurality of circuit breaker switches associated with the electrical circuit having the electrical receptacle into which the transceiver is plugged.
