Energy Audits
A structured way to understand where energy is used before selecting efficiency measures.
Electrical safety boundary: this page explains the system conceptually. It does not provide procedures for live electrical work, switching, protection settings, conductor/breaker sizing, substation access or high-voltage operation. Those activities require qualified professionals, applicable codes and utility procedures.
Where this fits
A structured way to understand where energy is used before selecting efficiency measures.
Core system ideas
An audit establishes an energy-use baseline and identifies major loads and operating patterns.
Measurements and operating schedules are more useful than assumptions alone.
Real facility electrical work and equipment modifications require qualified professionals.
Interfaces and tradeoffs
Demand is not static. Weather, schedules, technology and customer behaviour shape both total energy and the system peak, which is why interval data matters.
What organizations measure
Baseline energy, peak demand, operating hours, savings estimates and verification.
