European Home Systems (EHS) Protocol was aimed at home appliances control and communication using power line communication (PLC), developed by the European Home Systems Association (EHSA).
Now, after merging with two other protocols, it is a part of KNX (standard), which complies with the European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization (CENELEC) norm EN 50090 and has a chance to be a basis for the first open standard for home and building control.
Famous quotes containing the words european, home and/or systems:
“European society has always been divided into classes in a way that American society never has been. A European writer considers himself to be part of an old and honorable tradition—of intellectual activity, of letters—and his choice of a vocation does not cause him any uneasy wonder as to whether or not it will cost him all his friends. But this tradition does not exist in America.”
—James Baldwin (1924–1987)
“It is after we get home that we really go over the mountain, if ever.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“What is most original in a man’s nature is often that which is most desperate. Thus new systems are forced on the world by men who simply cannot bear the pain of living with what is. Creators care nothing for their systems except that they be unique. If Hitler had been born in Nazi Germany he wouldn’t have been content to enjoy the atmosphere.”
—Leonard Cohen (b. 1934)
