In terms of low-cost energy saving solutions, the Green Box Power Saver can't be beat. It's a patented energy saving device that is hooked up to your home's electrical panel, which then optimizes the power going into your home, allowing your appliances and equipment motors to operate more efficiently. We believe every home (and business) should have one.

Frequently Asked Questions
about the Green Box Power Saver

Learn how the Green Box Power Saver saves you money on your electric bill every month.
So how does the Green Box Power Saver work? We're glad you asked! We've taken the liberty to break the answer down into two categories: the first for those who read the cliff notes and the other for those who like to know what all the fine print means.

A brief explanation of how Green Box Power Saver saves you money and electricity:
As the demand for power runs through your home, there is non-productive current (heat) that strains your home appliances and wiring - this heat is wasted energy that you are paying for. The Green Box Power Saver optimizes the power that comes into your home, allowing your appliances and equipment motors to operate more efficiently. This reduces heat (wasted electricity), which in turn lowers your electric bill, reduces the chance of fires, and increases the life of your appliances and motorized equipment. It protects against power surges and increases the capacity to the electrical panel by making it run cooler.

The longer, "more complicated" explanation of how Green Box Power Saver saves you money and electricity:
When a motor starts, it asks the utilities transformer for power (voltage and amperage) to run. This demand for power starts in the motor, runs through the wiring, panel box, meter and down the lines to the transformer where it heats up and strains the motor and wiring. This heat (I2R losses) is called watts. The Green Box Power Saver, once installed, stores and releases energy to the motor it needs to function properly. This reduces heat on the wires and the motor. Reducing this heat, will lower your electric bill, increase the life of the motor and reduce the chances of fire.

The Green Box Power Saver corrects power factor, by reducing the amount of reactive power  that the load draws from the utility company. Green Box Power Saver store the reactive power needed for the creation of the EMF within the inductive load. As the motor operates, this reactive power is "pulled" and "pushed" to and from the Green Box Power Saver by the motor. The amount of reactive power purchased from the utility company by power factor optimization has been greatly reduced, or eliminated.

Power Suppliers benefit by being able to supply power to more customers without the generation or acquisition of additional power, and reduces capital expenditures by leveraging the existing infrastructure.

The technology applied by the Green Box Power Saver reclaims, stores and supplies power to inductive motors and loads. This process provides the reactive power required to establish the electromagnetic field (EMF) around the inductive windings of a motor, while reclaiming and recycling the power during the normal working phase. The power reclaimed and recycled by the Green Box Power Saver Unit would normally be pushed back through the power distribution lines.

As a result of providing reactive power locally, motors run cooler and more efficient. This equates to substantial savings on your electric bill and longer equipment life.
