the simplest type is known as a circuit breaker. more info needed to give a morr specific answer. sensing current flow and operating a relay would be another.

A switch works wonders, but you have to stand by to opperate it when necessary.

Perhaps you should share some other facts about your needs.

a timer cuts off power with a switch. some are mechanical and just open a set of contacts. others use a control voltage to operate a solid state relay.
