US 8,942,854 B2 · System and method for identifying electrical devices in a power management system

Abstract

Some embodiments relate to a method of identifying electrical devices in a power management system. The method includes accessing a controller using a server that includes identifiers of the electrical devices. The controller is electrically connected (directly or indirectly) to the electrical devices. The method further includes exchanging data between the server and the controller to correlate the identifiers with the electrical devices. The potential identifiers that may be used to correlate the identifiers with the electrical devices may be stored in an identifier database on the server. In some embodiments, the identifiers of the electrical devices may also be stored in an identifier database on the controller.

Dependent claims

A method of identifying electrical devices in a power management system comprising:

accessing a generator controller that includes identifiers of the electrical devices directly, or using a server that also includes the identifiers of the electrical devices, wherein the generator controller is connected to the electrical devices;
using the generator controller or the server to manually assign identifiers to the electrical devices and enter the assigned identifiers into a database on the generator controller or the server;
and
exchanging newly assigned data between the databases on the server and the generator controller to correlate the identifiers with the electrical devices in both the server and the generator controller.
