2D2C, Inc invented Out-of-Parameter Circuit Interrupter (OPCI) technology that helps prevent electrical fires. OPCI detects out-of-limit parameters associated with appliance overloads and bad wire junctions. These faults can result in heat and premise fire ignition. CSA Standard 265 (2012) defines OPCI protection circuitry. SafePlug brand receptacles are first to offer OPCI protection. Due to its mission to save lives, 2D2C Inc licenses manufacturing of its fire prevention technology to any qualified company. 2D2C, Inc manufactures SafePlug electrical safety receptacles that prevent fires, stop child shocks and save energy. For fire and shock protection, SafePlug receptacles contain both Out-of-Parameter Circuit Interrupter (EFCI) overload (OPCI-I) and high/low line voltage (OPCI-V) technology. SafePlug Energy receptacles add remote energy monitoring and control to these safety features, for energy savings, home automation, and security. The SafePlug Energy system uses RightPlug Alliance data-tags in appliance plugs to track appliance energy consumption automatically, even if appliances are moved to different receptacles. The SafePlug Energy system can turn appliances on/off via a schedule to avoid excess billing due to escalated Time Of Use (TOU) rates or by remote control (ZigBee wireless radio)2D2C Inc also offers solutions for electric charging stations, controlled access to electricity, and Demand Response load control.
