Introduction

The Regression Activity allows you to view correlations on a Site, view the CUSUM and set targets based on the CUSUM and Regression. This activity is not available from the main Activity Menu; it is only available via right click of a Site or through the Site Overview activity.

Navigation

Click on the Site in the Site Overview Activity

...

Alternatively, right-click on a Site and select Regression  from the menu



Regression Correlations

Automatic Regressions

Sigma will automatically check the system to find any correlations with an R2 value of 0.9 or greater.

Correlations will be between two data points and those found automatically will display as follows:


Manual Regressions

Correlations can also be setup manually by selecting  and choosing the required correlation items within the setup screen.

...

You will now see three tabs - Regression, CUSUM and Control Chart

Regression

Graph

  • The graph plots the Dependent Data against the Independent Data and draws a line of best fit

Overview

  • The Overview chart shows the dependent data and independent data for the regression period and part of the historic period too
  • Dragging your mouse over this chart will update the regression period displayed
  • The Overview Graph can be minimised by clicking the Overview header bar





Details

This section shows gradient and intercept of the graph.

...

The details section displays both the Correlation Coefficient and Coefficient of Determination.


Regression Period

Use the start date to choose the start period for the graph, either selecting the drop down boxes or the calendar icon .

Set the end date for the graph in the same way.


Manage Regression Targets

  • If a regression is found, it is automatically saved as Original Correlation, this correlation cannot be amended
  • A New performance line is also created which can be amended and saved as a new regression target


Table tab

The screen defaults to show the data in a graph. This can be changed to show as a table.

...

The table and charts can be saved by clicking 


CUSUM

Click on Image Modified

Graph

The graph shows the cumulative data based on the CUSUM period

Clicking and dragging your mouse over the graph will zoom into the data

Overview

The Overview chart (bottom of the screen) shows the dependent data and independent data for the CUSUM period and part of the historic period too

...

The Overview Graph can be minimised by clicking the Overview header bar



Details

CUSUM and CUSUM CO2 will always be 0.00 when moving straight from Regression without changing the CUSUM period.

When the CUSUM period is changed then anything above the 0 value based on the regression period will be calculated and listed in both kWh's and CO2.


Data Analysis

Tick the Show V-Mask box to add a V-Mask target onto the CUSUM. To confirm target creation select  in the resulting popup window

...

Tick Show Fixed Targets to add a CUSUM fixed target. To confirm target creation select  in the resulting popup window.


CUSUM Period

Use the start date to choose the start period for the graph, either selecting the drop down boxes or the calendar icon  

Set the end date for the graph in the same way

Targets

This section displays any targets that have been created on the CUSUM

...

The Targets will only create an event if the first point of data is outside the tolerance range by >5% or if there are two consecutive points of day outside the tolerance range but with the 5% range.


Table

Selecting the  tab to show the data points that are plotted on the graph

...

The table and charts can be saved by click 






Control Chart

It is not possible to go directly from Regression to the Control Chart as it is a designed as a stepped approach. 

Navigate from Regression to the Control Chart via CUSUM by clicking  then 

Graph

The graph will display data for the same period that has been set in the CUSUM

...

Difference line - data for the period being presented


Overview

The Overview Graph highlights the current target period by default and displays historic and future data

The Overview Graph can be minimised by clicking the Overview header bar


Targets

By default a New Control Target will be created for the user to amend as required. This target is not saved unless you click the Save button

The Targets section details the current control line parameters as well as allowing you to add and remove targets. 


Control Lines

To amend the control lines applied change the control limit
