Abstract

A method for controlling at least one controllable system component in an electrical installation, where the installation is connected to an electrical supply network via a network connection. A measurement value of a performance from the supply network is detected for each individual successive time interval, and if one of the measurement values is larger than a predetermined threshold value, the performance is guided below the threshold value by switching electrical compensation power. The measurement value of the current time interval is predicted as a forecast value using a control device at at least one time within the current time interval in question by using forecast data to add a future course of the performance extending to the end of the time interval, and thereby deciding during the time interval how much compensation power is necessary.
