no. 1 example

[0058] refer to figure 2 , and according to a first embodiment of the method of using the device of the invention, consider the energy consumption of a particular device, such as a television T, mainly due to the amplification stages of audio and video signals, which run in the power line 7 and generate disturbances.

[0059] The resulting current fluctuations are not specific to the TV T as a power consuming device, but to those channels being watched.

[0060] Different television sets T from different manufacturers will produce similar patterns since they are amplifying the same audio and video signals when tuned to one of the same channels.

[0061] If several TV sets T are supplied by the same one power line 7, fluctuations will increase, so in order to establish the proportion of viewers for each TV channel that exceeds the total energy consumption of all channels, the proportion of energy consumption produced by each channel needs to be calculated.

[0062] In this em...

Abstract

Device for measuring consumption patterns through the electric mains and method for use thereof, comprising a microcontroller / processing unit control unit (2) and another auxiliary device; a modulator / demodulator communications unit (3); a suppy unit (4), which transforms the available current to the voltages (8) suitable for the operation of the device (1); and measuring unit (5) for measuring the electric consumption on the line (7) of the electric mains, the conditioning of this measurement, comparison thereof, if necessary, with a predetermined consumption pattern, and dispatch to the communications unit (3). A first example establishes a device for identifying the television programmes viewed on a television in order to measure audiences. A second example identifies the type of electric equipment associated with the electric line enabling compiling of statistics and subsequent studies.

Description

technical field [0001] As stated in the title of this specification, the present invention relates to a device for measuring energy consumption patterns through an electrical network. [0002] In particular, the invention comprises a device for measuring power consumption on a line or cable of a power distribution network, processing said measurements to determine the energy consumption pattern of a group of users using the line corresponding to the distribution node, sending the energy consumption pattern To e.g. a remote system for information processing. [0003] Specific characteristics of electrical equipment consuming electric energy can be determined by comparison with predetermined patterns. In the first embodiment of the present invention, a method for identifying TV programs watched by a TV set is proposed in order to examine viewers. [0004] In a second embodiment a method is established which allows identification of the equipment type of electrical equipment ass...
