Appliance Power & Leak Monitor

Checks each appliance against its normal power use, and watches the whole house for unaccounted electricity (leaks).

Step 1 — Load the system

This reads the household data and works out the normal power for each appliance. It can take up to a minute the first time.

Press Load the system to begin.

Step 2 — Simulate a problem (optional)

Tick the equipment, choose what is wrong and how bad, then Apply.

Equipment to affect

Rental suite Garage Main panel Bedroom 1 Basement Clothes washer Dishwasher Security / network HVAC / furnace fan Heat pump Home office Utility plugs Wall oven Bedroom 2 / master Clothes dryer Dining plugs Electronics bench Kitchen fridge Instant hot water Outside plugs Entertainment (TV/PVR)

What is wrong with it?

Working fine Drawing too much (worn) Drawing too little (weak) Not running (broken)

How bad? (for over/under power)

Low Medium High

Electricity leak in the house

Simulate power being lost somewhere with no appliance (faulty wiring, an unmetered load, theft).

Leak size

None Small Medium Large

Run

Play steps through the records so you can watch the table and status change.

Plot

Estimated watts is the appliance's normal power, learned from a healthy period of data.

Now using is the live power as the records play.

An appliance is flagged when its power stays clearly above its normal value (worn / drawing too much), below it (weak), or at zero when it should be running (broken).

A leak is found by comparing the whole-house meter to the sum of all appliances. A faulty appliance raises the meter by the same amount, so it does not look like a leak — only truly unaccounted power does.

There are no real fault labels in the data, so you test the system by simulating problems above and watching it respond.
