Abstract
The invention relates to a power providing system () comprising a power providing device () like a PSE and an electrical device () like a PD. In a classification mode in a first phase the power providing device provides one or several voltage pulses and the electrical device draws one or several classification current pulses for indicating the class of the electrical device, wherein in a second phase the power providing device provides one or several voltage pulses for indicating the class of the power providing device. Thus, the indication of the classes of the electrical device and of the power providing device is decoupled in two different phases, which can lead to an improved mutual classification procedure.
