X-10 POWERHOUSE SYSTEM
X-10 Powerhouse System (formerly called X-10 System and BSR X-10 System) is a flexible remote appliance control system. A central control panel is plugged into a wall socket, and the desired appliances are plugged into appliance control modules around the house. The user selects which appliance he wants controlled on the central control panel, and a signal is broadcast through the house wiring to the appropriate control module. The module then turns the appliance on, off, up, down, etc. Many different types of control modules are available, including socket, wall switch, telephone, and thermostat models. The system and components are sold by various manufacturers under various names. Some companies have versions with scanning control panels (see separate entry under brandname Scanning X-10 Powerhouse by Prentke Romich Company). Contact X-10 (USA) about what systems are available. Cost will vary. X-10 also offers a remote radio transmitter that allows control from a greater distance, such as outside the home.
