Abstract
A computer system that includes a processor device and a storage device is configured to determine a base load at a utility customer site using power usage data for the utility customer site, to determine a variable load at the utility customer site during a range of temperature independent days using the power usage data, and to determine a temperature dependent load at the utility customer site that exceeds the variable load and the base load using the power usage data. The computer system is further configured to assign a flag to each time interval that the temperature dependent load exceeds a power usage threshold and to determine if the utility customer site has an equipment malfunction based on a number of the flags assigned within a time period.
