REFIT: Electrical Load Measurements (Cleaned)

The REFIT Electrical Load Measurements dataset includes cleaned electrical consumption data in Watts for 20 households at aggregate and appliance level, timestamped and sampled at 8 second intervals. This dataset is intended to be used for research into energy conservation and advanced energy services, ranging from non-intrusive appliance load monitoring, demand response measures, tailored energy and retrofit advice, appliance usage analysis, consumption and time-use statistics and smart home/building automation. When using this dataset please cite the following paper in Scientific Data, http://dx.doi.org/10.1038/sdata.2016.122 This version of the dataset has been cleaned in the following ways: - Timestamp duplicates have been merged. - IAM (Individual Appliance Monitor) readings set to 0 Watts if above 4000 Watts (above the rated limit of the sensor). - Each IAM has been processed to ensure that it only shows readings for one appliance, where possible. - The ReadMe file has been updated with information about monitored appliance changes. - NaN values have been forward filled (< 2 minute gaps) or zeroed (> 2 minute gaps). This work has been carried out as part of the REFIT project (`Personalised Retrofit Decision Support Tools for UK Homes using Smart Home Technology', Grant Reference EP/K002368/1/1). REFIT is a consortium of three universities - Loughborough, Strathclyde and East Anglia - and ten industry stakeholders funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) under the Transforming Energy Demand in Buildings through Digital Innovation (BuildTEDDI) funding programme. A raw data version of this dataset (deposited 23/09/2015) is also available from the Data Sets link below.
