Abstract: Electrical usage of devices in a building may be monitored to provide information about the operation of the devices to a user. The information communicated to a user may include historical information that is retrieved from a server and real-time information that is received from a power monitoring device. The historical information may be transmitted to the user device over a first network connection where the historical information is retrieved using an identifier received from the user device. The real-time information may be received from a power monitoring device and transmitted to the user device over a second network connection.

Abstract: Electrical usage of devices in a building may be monitored to determine information about the operation of the devices in the building, and the information about the devices in the building may be used to provide notifications to a user. An electrical signal may be processed to determine a state change of a device. A notification score may then be determined using information about the state change of the device and a notification event model. A notification may then be sent to the user based at least in part on the notification event score.

Abstract: Electrical usage of devices in a building may be monitored to provide information about the operation of the devices to a user. The information communicated to a user may include historical information and real-time information. In determining the real-time information, it may be desired to provide the information quickly and use a smaller set of features that are available more quickly. In determining the historical information, it may be desired to provide more accurate information and use a larger set of features. A device may compute real-time information and historical information using different sets of features.
