Abstract

Each of connection data 11, . . . , or 15, of the downstream side of a socket 1, . . . , or 5 or a panel board 6, 7, or 8 in a power supply direction, is generated in a tap 16, a UPS 25 and 35, or a terminal 24 or 34, and each of the connection data is transmitted to a electrical system wiring diagram generating terminal 36. Then, a wiring diagram is generated, based on connecting information 91 of the upstream side, which is registered in the generating terminal 36, and the plural connection data of the downstream sides.
