Dataset on electrical single-family house and heat pump load profiles in Germany

This paper describes a dataset of residential electricity household and heat pump load profiles, measured in 38 single-family houses in Northern Germany. We provide data per household of apparent, active and reactive power (W), voltage (V), current (A) and the power factor (no unit) in 10 seconds to 60 minutes temporal resolution from May 2018 to the end of 2020. We validated the dataset both in itself, comparing different measurements that should produce the same results, and externally to standard load profiles and found no major inconsistencies. We identified an average consumption per single-family house with 2.38 inhabitants of 2829 kWh for the household and an additional 4993 kWh for the heat pump. The dataset can support the understanding of patterns in electrical load curves and can help to estimate the additional load on distribution networks induced by heat pumps.
