Abstract:
A power distribution box apparatus and method for implementing a priority disconnect scheme and a network communication bridge at a worksite, where the power distribution box distributes temporary power. The power distribution box includes a housing portion and a base portion elevating the housing portion off of the ground or another surface. The power distribution box includes a communication module having a network connecting module operable to connect to an external communication network (e.g., the Internet), and a wireless network module operable to wirelessly communicate with an external device (e.g., a smart phone) to, thereby, connect the external device to the external communication network. The power distribution box may also include a priority disconnect module to selectively disconnect AC output receptacles in response to over-current situations based on a priority level associated with each receptacle.

Claim (Index 1):
A power distribution box with priority disconnection, the power distribution box comprising:\n a power input that receives alternating current (AC) power from an external power source; a housing; a plurality of alternating current (AC) output receptacles supported by the housing and electrically coupled to the power input, wherein the AC power is distributed to the plurality of AC output receptacles; a plurality of manual priority level selectors supported by the housing, wherein each of the plurality of manual priority level selectors is configurable among a plurality of priority levels and is set to a priority level for disconnecting a respective AC output receptacle; a manual reset selector supported by the housing; and an electronic controller configured to:\n detect a sum current level for the plurality of AC output receptacles, \n determine that the sum current level exceeds a priority disconnect threshold, \n in response to determining that the sum current level exceeds the priority disconnect threshold, selectively disconnect a first AC output receptacle of the plurality of AC output receptacles from the power input based on the priority level set for the first AC output receptacle, and \n in response to receiving input at the manual reset selector, selectively reconnect the first AC output receptacle to the power input.
