Abstract:
A method collects from at least one power measuring device of an environment power consumption data indicating active power consumption during a timeframe by an electrical device in the environment. The method also collects operating parameter data indicating at least one operating parameter under which the electrical device operates during at least a portion of the timeframe. The method performs, based on observing an increase in power consumption of the electrical device during the timeframe, assessing extents of contribution by potential contributing factors to the increase in power consumption, the potential contributing factors including time-based degradation of the electrical device and the at least one operating parameter. The method outputs, based on the assessing, an indication of an extent of contribution of degradation of the electrical device to the increase in power consumption.
