METHOD FOR INDIVIDUALLY CONTROLLING AND GROUP-CONTROLLING MULTI-TAP BASED ON WIRELESS COMMUNICATION AND MULTI-TAP INDIVIDUALLY CONTROLLED AND GROUP-CONTROLLED BASED ON WIRELESS COMMUNICATION

摘要

Disclosed are a multi-tap power control method and a multi-tap. A method for controlling an operation of a multi-tap may comprise the steps of: performing pairing with a multi-tap control device on the basis of a pairing request signal transmitted from the multi-tap control device; receiving an operation control signal from the multi-tap control device; and controlling an operation for turning on/off power of at least one electrical outlet included in the multi-tap on the basis of the operation control signal, wherein the pairing request signal may include identification information of the multi-tap control device. Accordingly, by controlling power of the multi-tap located within home or an office, it is possible to minimize standby power consumption, thereby reducing the amount of used electricity.
