That is, if among the devices constituting the friend system, TV, electric heaters such as electric heaters or electric irons, and air conditioners remain on for a long time that is difficult to understand in common sense, the service server 30 checks the current status by the customer. It is judged as a necessary abnormal condition.

In step S244, the service server 30 maps the ON duration of the friend-side power consuming device 10-1 to the friend-side power consuming device identification information to generate alarm information.

In step S246, a process of displaying the alarm information transmitted from the service server 30 to the customer by the customer terminal 40 is performed. For example, this alarm information may include the content that "the parents' TV is on for 2 days".

In step S251, the service server 30 maintains the off state by exceeding the OFF reference time stored in the service DB by the friend-side power consuming device 10-1 connected to the friend-side power consumption meter 20-1. Whether or not the process is performed. As a result of the determination in step S251, when it is determined that the friend's power consuming device 10-1 is in the off state beyond the OFF reference time, the process is switched to step S252.

In step S252, a process of determining the friend's current state as an abnormal state is performed by the service server 30. That is, if a product such as a TV, a refrigerator, or a certain seasonal home appliance among the devices constituting the friend system remains off for a long time that is difficult to understand in common sense, the service server 30 checks the current state by the customer. It is judged as a necessary abnormal condition.

In step S254, the service server 30 maps the off duration of the friend-side power consuming device 10-1 to the friend-side power consuming device identification information to generate alarm information.

In step S256, a process of displaying the alarm information transmitted from the service server 30 to the customer by the customer terminal 40 is performed. For example, the alarm information may include the content that "the parents' TV has been turned off for 32 days."

9 is a view showing another exemplary configuration in which the service server 30 notifies the customer terminal 40 of an abnormal state of a friend's power consumption pattern according to an embodiment of the present invention.

9, the service server 30 turns on the friend-side power consumption device 10-1 connected to the friend-side power consumption meter 20-1 registered by the friend at the off-estimated time stored in the service DB. In the case of (turn-on), it may be configured to map intrusion suspicious information to information for identifying the friend's power consuming device 10-1 and provide it to the customer terminal 40.

This configuration will be described in detail as follows.

Since the operations in steps S210, S220, and S230 have already been described in the process of describing the configuration illustrated in FIG. 6, duplicate descriptions are omitted.

In step S310, the service server 30 determines whether the friend-side power consuming device 10-1 is turned on at the estimated OFF time stored in the service DB. For example, the estimated OFF time may be a late-night time zone, and more specifically, a time zone such as 3 o'clock to 5 o'clock, when a general elderly with a short sleep time sleeps. It is possible to register or change by accessing the service server 30 through (40). As a result of the determination in step S310, when it is determined that the friend's power consuming device 10-1 is turned on at the OFF estimated time, the process is switched to step S320.

In step S320, a process of determining, by the service server 30, the current state of the friend as an intrusion suspicious state is performed. That is, for example, when a friend, for example, a specific home appliance of a parent's house, is turned on at an off-estimated time such as a late-night time or a time when the friend is out, the service server 30 displays the current status of the friend information. It is judged as an intrusion suspicious state that requires checking whether a registered customer, for example, a child has intruded into the parents' house.

In step S330, the service server 30 maps the intrusion suspicious information to the friend's power consuming device identification information turned on at the off-estimated time to generate alarm information.

In step S340, the service server 30 transmits the alarm information to the customer terminal 40 registered with the friend information, and the customer terminal 40 displays the alarm information received from the service server 30 to the customer. do.

As described in detail above, according to the present invention, by analyzing the power consumption of various power consuming devices in the user's home including parents registered as friends by the customer, friend situation information is generated and provided to the customer in real time. It is possible to support the appropriate response by grasping the current status of friends, including parents, in real time.

In addition, a corresponding compensation is provided to the customer so that customers who purchase a power consumption meter such as a smart plug can voluntarily provide information to identify the power consumption device connected to the power consumption meter to the service operator. By organically analyzing the identification information and the power consumption information transmitted by the power consumption meter, it provides customer-customized convergence information to customers, thereby inducing active participation of customers such as allowing customers who have subscribed to the service to maintain their subscription status for a long time. There is an effect of providing an IoT-based power consumption device convergence consulting service providing system that can contribute to savings.
