Abstract: A system for analyzing electrical consumption of a site equipped with a plurality electrical equipment. The system comprises at least one sensor for periodic measurement of global consumption of the site by measuring current and voltage signals on at least one of the electrical phases upstream of the supply network for the site. The system comprises a processor for decomposing the global consumption of the site to individual consumption of each kind of electrical equipment based on a set of signatures with each signature has power load coefficients representing power loads of the corresponding electrical equipment. The system comprises a processor for optimizing the set of signatures and power load coefficients in comparing a calculated recomposition of the individual consumption with the measured global consumption to have a smallest difference of the comparison result, while respecting physical constraints of the set of signatures and the power load coefficients.
Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for analyzing the electricity consumption of a site provided with a plurality of electrical devices of different types, wherein the method comprises: periodically measuring the current and the voltage over at least one of the electrical phases upstream from the power supply network of the site; and processing a combination of digitized signals in order to determine the distribution of the consumption on the basis of at least some of the devices in accordance with a signature of each of the devices. The processing involves comparing the waveform of the measured current with a library of pre-saved signatures for each of the electrical devices. The signatures comprising at least one parameter based on the waveform of the supply voltage.
