+### Example 7 - Z-Score based alarm
+
+Derive a "[Z Score](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_score)" based alarm on `user` dimension of the `system.cpu` chart:
+
+```yaml
+ alarm: cpu_user_mean
+    on: system.cpu
+lookup: mean -60s of user
+ every: 10s
+
+ alarm: cpu_user_stddev
+    on: system.cpu
+lookup: stddev -60s of user
+ every: 10s
+
+ alarm: cpu_user_zscore
+    on: system.cpu
+lookup: mean -10s of user
+  calc: ($this - $cpu_user_mean) / $cpu_user_stddev
+ every: 10s
+  warn: $this < -2 or $this > 2
+  crit: $this < -3 or $this > 3
+```
+
+Since [`z = (x - mean) / stddev`](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_score) we create two input alarms, one for `mean` and one for `stddev` and then use them both as inputs in our final `cpu_user_zscore` alarm.

 ## Troubleshooting
 
 You can compile Netdata with [debugging](/daemon/README.md#debugging) and then set in `netdata.conf`:
