Abstract (EN): In a residential building context, the installation of a monitoring system to collect occupant behavior data is not an easy job. The monitoring system has to be almost imperceptible to occupants, work well with a low need of maintenance and collect accurate data. These requirements are difficult to be achieved simultaneously. Furthermore, the data collected have some corrupted periods, gaps or outliers. Thus, this work presents a contribution to the improvement of future monitoring campaigns. This study focuses in the analysis of the impact of sensors position on the accuracy of the data, the detection of bad data and a way to avoid it to trick the building management system. The data used in this study was collected in a two-year residential monitoring campaign. In the end, it was possible to conclude that some sensors positions simply do not collect the intended data.
