1. A system for transporting passengers, the system including a passenger transportation installation in a building, a main energy supply in the building supplying the passenger transportation installation with electrical energy, and a main switch for separating the passenger transportation installation from the main energy supply, the main switch being arranged in the building and having an input side connected to the main energy supply and an output side connected to the passenger transportation installation, the system comprising:
a measuring device having a sensor measuring an electrical parameter of the electrical energy from the main energy supply;
a communication device transferring the measured electrical parameter to an analysis device; and
wherein the sensor is connected at least one of electrically and electromagnetically to the main energy supply on the input side of the main switch by connecting the sensor to a first conductor of the main energy supply and measuring the electrical parameter for a specific time, then connecting the sensor to at least another conductor of the main energy supply and measuring the electrical parameter for the specific time, evaluating the electrical parameter measurements with the measuring device for an information content, and connecting the sensor to a one of the conductors for which the electrical parameter measurement information content is highest.
