Abstract
A power distribution system for retrofitting to a household or other building. The power distribution system includes a means for supplying energy to the power distribution system for an indeterminate period of time. The power distribution system further comprises a means for converting the energy supplied to the power distribution system into motion. A generator is operatively connected to the energy converting means and converts the motion produced by the energy converting means into an electric current. The electric current produced by the generator is used to power a high-load circuit. An alternator is also operatively connected to the energy converting means. The alternator is configured to convert the motion produced by the energy converting means into another electric current. The alternator transmits this electric current to a bank of batteries which stores the charge. An inverter is electrically connected to the bank of batteries and transmits an electric current from the bank of batteries to a low-load circuit.
