摘要

A method for automatically and consumer-oriented minimization of the total current consumption and the peak power of a group of on a power supply network connected individual electrical consumers, at least some of which can be switched off or temporarily to a reduced power consumption can be switched over, and wherein the consumers via a control device associated with them in each case individually are connected to one another by means of a transmission medium, comprising the steps of:a) monitoring each to the power supply by means of the consumer connected to the consumer directly associated control device, and detecting the operating state and the power consumption of the load by means of the control device,b) alternate exchange of data between the control devices via the transmission medium,c) a continuous detection of the total power consumption of the plurality of the consumers connected to the power supply network and supply of the measured value of the detected total power consumption via the transmission medium to the individual control devices,d) issue of a according to the individual degree with respect to the instantaneously valid importance to - or switching off or of the switching of a consumer of a larger or smaller power consumption..
