A method for automatically determining how monitoring devices in an electrical system having a main source of energy and at least one alternative source of energy (e.g., another utility source, a generator, or UPS system) are connected together to form a hierarchy. The end-user inputs identification information about the monitoring device(s) monitoring the alternative source of energy. The method receives time-series data from the monitoring devices and determines a model type of the electrical system by analyzing the monitoring device's time-series data. Once the model type is known, the method builds the complete monitoring system hierarchy in which the monitoring devices that are monitoring the main and alternative sources are placed properly. The method can also validate polarity nomenclature of the time-series data to account for end-user's varying polarity configurations.
