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.
