A electrical distribution system has been developed to provide a remote central control point for individual circuits, and methods have been developed for retrofitting it to existing service panels or installing it into new service panels. This system provides a power circuit monitoring and control system that fits inside standard residential service panels, both new and retrofitted panels. The entire system can be retrofitted into existing breaker panel systems without the need of removing any permanent structure such as a wall. During this retrofit process, the panel cover on the existing distribution panel is first removed after the power to it is disconnected. The old breaker assembly is removed from the panel, and a circuit controller is then installed in the now available space within the panel. A new service panel enclosure with a circuit breaker assembly is installed directly over top of the enclosure.
