Abstract
Apparatus, methods, and other embodiments associated with providing a correlation between a power distribution unit(s) and a device(s) are described. One example method includes storing first time series data that identifies, on a per power distribution unit (PDU) basis, current drawn from a set of PDUs. The example method may include storing second time series data that identifies, on a per device basis, power used by a set of related devices. With the two time series data available, the method may then provide a PDU-device correlation signal that identifies a correlation between current drawn from a PDU and power used by a device.
