GROUPING OF ELECTRICAL SOCKETS

Examples techniques of grouping of electrical sockets are described. At a building management system (BMS), timestamp information from a plurality of electrical sockets installed within the premises is received. The timestamp information is indicative of a time instance of actuation of the respective electrical sockets. The timestamp information of each of the electrical sockets is compared to each other to identify two or more electrical sockets that are actuated within a predetermined time lapse with respect to each other. Electrical sockets that are to be configured as a group are determined. The electrical sockets of the group are controllable by a common electrical circuit. The BMS records a configuration of the group, including identifications of the electrical sockets of the group and their corresponding zones.
