The study analyzes a detailed dataset (1-second resolution) of household electricity consumption. It shows that a sampling rate of 15 minutes is insufficient to detect power peaks for billing purposes. A granularity of 5 to 10 seconds detects peaks but significantly increases data processing. This highlights the importance of high sampling rates in designing electricity tariffs that account for peak consumption.
