Some clean-up and potential fix for encoding issues #34

Closed PMeira closed 5 years ago

PMeira commented 6 years ago

This is mostly to address the recurrent encoding issues some users are facing. Very simple changes as described here: https://github.com/nilmtk/nilmtk/issues/670#issuecomment-400016680

Since I had some small clean-up changes, I left them in the PR too.

There might still be some encoding issue somewhere else, but so far all issue tickets in NILMTK are a result of the wrong encoding while trying to use yaml.load. If there are further issues with yaml.load, we can just force using 'utf-8' as the encoding.

EDIT: this closes https://github.com/nilmtk/nilmtk/issues/670
