Enetics SPEED™ Products 
Non-Intrusive Appliance Load Monitoring (NIALMS) is a unique
approach to monitoring the energy consumption of major appliances
within a home. With NIALMS, a single recording meter is installed at
the electrical service entrance and from this location the energy
consumption and time of use of each major appliance can be captured.
Installation is quick and easy. Re-wiring of appliances is never
required. Complete appliance consumption data as well as whole house
consumption data is available for every minute of the day. Enetics'
NIALMS product has been proven in extensive testing since its
initial release in 1996.
Enetics is the sole supplier of this technology in the world
today. Our engineering staff has been engaged in research,
development and commercialization activities for non-intrusive
end-use monitoring since 1993. Enetics' family of NIALMS products is
named SPEED™ (Single Point End-use Energy Disaggregation) and
employs patented technology.
System Description
SPEED™ is a Non-Intrusive Appliance Load Monitoring System (NIALMS)
comprised of three primary components: Field Recorder, Master Station, and Analysis Station. It is used to measure
the power consumption of individual loads and appliances without
directly metering each of the loads. Through analysis of the profile
of energy that flows into the residence SPEED™ can monitor the
energy consumed by specific loads (appliances) within the premises.
The resulting data includes total energy consumed per appliance, as
well as time of day "interval" data. In addition to
monitoring energy consumption, the product can record and correlate
temperature information with energy-use data, help to identify
faulty appliances and recognize abnormal energy use. Enetics refers
to this product as SPEED™ (Single Point End-use Energy
Disaggregation).
Data recorded at each premises is uploaded on a regular basis
(typically bi-weekly) to the SPEED™ Master
Station. The Master Station
collects the data, manages the recorders, and performs the SPEED™
algorithm processing resulting in interval data for whole premises
and individual appliances. This data is placed in a database for
flexible access by analysis software.
Enetics' Analysis Station is
capable of accessing the data from the database and presenting the
information to the operator in the form of graphical charts,
spreadsheet tables, and summary reports. Analysis
Station allows any time period to be viewed for any premises
including any subset of appliances. Additionally, Analysis Station provides for the
generation of reports for the aggregation of results across multiple
premises.
Field Station is a portable tool which can be directly connected
to the field recorder using a provided cable. Field Station can be
used to verify installation, collect data, and program the recorder.
