This is the learning so far in trying to solve for the following use case:
A whole house backup generator kicks in automatically during power failure and
'brown outs'. Need to turn off all non-essential equipment when the generator
kicks in.
So the scenario for the use case so far looks like this:
Utility Power goes out >>
Four Pole ice cube Relay opens circuit to non essential equipment(see diagram below), Mac powers down,
backup generator starts up>>
Backup Generator is up, Mac powers up and Indigo pings an IP device on the utility side only
to determine when utility power is up >>
Utility Power comes Back>>
Indigo checks if Utility Power has been stable for some 30 minutes.
If Utility power has been stable Indigo to send a 'restore' signal to the ice cube relay.(I
still have to source a IP to contact closure device.)
