Treatment & Detection of Multiple Identical Household Devices

Ah… Wait… So the device/appliance detection has nothing to do with the usage pattern/dynamic once it is turned on… The detection is only done in terms of detecting its “on signature” and its “off signature”. Is that correct? Runtime behavior and signature is not a consideration?

Is that why my coffee maker (which comes on at a burst of about 1,200 Watts) is constantly identified as on, when it’s really my toaster oven, or my washing machine?

Interesting… Thanks for that detail…
