Patent ID: 8536733

Claim:
A master and slave power outlet system, comprising: a master outlet including: a first power output interface for outputting a first power supply to a first master device connected to the first power output interface; a current detecting unit connected to the first power output interface for generating a detecting signal according to whether an output current associated with the first power supply is detected; a first processing unit connected to the current detecting unit for receiving the detecting signal in order to generate a first control signal; a first wireless module connected to the first processing unit for receiving the first control signal before generating a wireless signal; a slave outlet including: a second processing unit; a second power output interface for outputting a second power supply to a slave device connected to the second power output interface; a second wireless module connected to the second processing unit for receiving the wireless signal and transmitting the wireless signal to the second processing unit so that the second processing unit generates a second control signal; and a slave switch, connected to the second processing unit and the second power output interface, for controlling the second power output interface according to the second control signal to determine whether to provide the second power supply to the slave device.
