Abstract: The method for analyzing and displaying the energy consumption of electric loads according to the invention comprises, in principle, the following steps: providing at least one consumer network comprising a plurality of interconnected electric loads; sampling the total current, voltage and phase shift of the consumer network with a sampling rate of less than 5 Hz; transmitting the sampled measured data through the internet to a means for load recognition; receiving the sampled measured data through the internet by the means for load recognition; determining individual loads in the measured data by the means for load recognition, comprising: determining temporal regularities of individual loads by means of a spectral analysis of the measured data, and/or generating load models for individual loads by modelling individual phenomena in the measured data by means of classifiers, and visualizing the energy consumption in the consumer network.
