Abstract
System for controlling power consumption on a portion of a distribution grid providing electrical power to a plurality of power-consuming units and including a substation providing one or more transformers operable to increase or decrease the voltage supplied to consumers within the portion of the grid. A data set includes a previously measured power consumption associated with previously measured values of (a) property(ies) being one of voltage, current, frequency or load, or a combination thereof. A measurement device for measuring the property(ies) of the grid. A processing device to determine from the previously measured values of the property(ies) a most likely effect of altering the value(s) of the property(ies) from a first value to a second value. A storage device for storing one or more rules associating a measured condition with a corrective action. The system being operable to determine whether a measurement meets a measured condition of a stored rule.
