ELECTRICAL ANOMALY DETECTION METHOD AND SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A method for real time monitoring of an electrical network in a facility in order to detect an electrical anomaly, the method comprising:
- use of a processor for carrying out the steps of;
receiving real time sensor data including at least one measured value measured in real time by at least one sensor installed on a conductor of said electrical network in said facility, each said at least one measured value being one of a current value and a voltage value;
retrieving an anomaly detection rule, said rule having an identification of a required input, a formula, and a threshold reference value, for a detection of an anomaly, said threshold reference value being determined using a nominal value for said input for said relevant element;
extracting at least one relevant measured value from said at least one measured value using said identification of said required input;
comparing said at least one relevant measured value to said threshold reference value according to said formula to determine one of a presence and an absence of said anomaly in said real time sensor data; and
if said anomaly is determined to be present, retrieving and providing anomaly monitoring data, said anomaly monitoring data including an indication of a monitoring course of action to be carried out to address said anomaly determined to be present.

Abstract
There are provided a method and a system for real time monitoring of a powered on electrical network in a facility in order to detect an electrical anomaly while the electrical network is in use. The system comprises a sensor data receiver for receiving real time sensor data including at least one measured value measured in real time by at least one sensor installed on a conductor of the electrical network in the facility while the electrical network is in use; an anomaly detector for retrieving an anomaly detection rule from an anomaly detection rule database, the rule having an identification of a required input, a formula, and a threshold reference value, for a detection of an anomaly; receiving the real time sensor data from the sensor data receiver and extracting at least one relevant measured value from the at least one measured value using the identification of the required input; comparing the at least one relevant measured value to the threshold reference value according to the formula to determine one of a presence and an absence of the anomaly in the real time sensor data; an event generator controlled by the processor for retrieving and providing anomaly monitoring data if the anomaly is determined to be present by the processor, the anomaly monitoring data including an indication of a monitoring course of action to be carried out to address the anomaly determined to be present.
