<p>A method of statistical analysis in an intelligent electronic device for data reduction and analysis is presented. The intelligent electronic device includes a microcontrol and associated memories. An algorithm (program) stored in memory of the intelligent electronic device processes real time data on measured and/or calculated electrical parameters using recognized statistical and/or numerical techniques. The algorithm will issue events and/or alarms when observed data is recognized to deviate in statistically significant amounts from statistical values. Allowing only valuable user information, as opposed to "raw" unprocessed and potentially insignificant data, to be sent across a limited capacity network for potential user intervention. Thereby saving network capacity and ensuring that a user is automatically notified of significant events requiring further analysis and/or intervention.</p> |
