  • Patent number: 12253548
    Abstract: A system for monitoring and analyzing electrical operating parameters of a load in an electric network includes a smart socket placed in series between the load and the electric network. The smart socket includes a voltage detection module that measures a voltage value in the electric network between the ends of the load, a current detection module in the electric network that measures a current value adsorbed by the load, and a control unit connected to the voltage detection module and to the current detection module. In particular, the control unit comprises a neural network arranged to carry out a training comprising the steps of definition of a number n of events association, to each event Ei of a number mi, of patterns pij of predetermined current and/or voltage trends, extrapolation of characteristic parameters cik distinguishing the pattern pij associated with the classified event Ei.

  • Publication number: 20230054387
    Abstract: A system for monitoring and analyzing electrical operating parameters of a load (10) in a electric network (20), said system comprising a smart socket (110) arranged to be placed in series between the load (10) and the electric network (20), said smart socket (110) comprising a voltage detection module arranged to measure a voltage value in the electric network (20), as an electric potential difference between the ends of the load (10), a current detection module in the electric network (20) arranged to measure a current value adsorbed by the load (10), when the load (10) is connected to the electric network (20), a control unit connected to the voltage detection module and to the current detection module. In particular, the control unit is arranged to carry out a periodic acquisition of the voltage value in said electric network (20), obtaining a voltage trend over time and a periodic acquisition of the current value adsorbed by the load (10), obtaining a current trend over time.
