ENERGY MONITORING SYSTEM USING IOT TECHNOLOGY

Abstract

There are many problems in metering and billing processes for meter reader to take meter reading manually due to the non-existence of the customers at their homes during that time, problems while taking meter reading and sometimes the areas are not safety. The conventional method is not much suitable to retrieve the energy meter data and billing. It is tedious process for the meter reader to collect it manually and submit to the electrical distribution office to issue the bill for each consumer. On the other hand, energy meter in-service suffers from well-known measuring errors. The above problems impacts two significant things, Waste of Money and lack of Electricity Distribution Management which results in lack in electric power. Energy Monitoring System will takes automatically the reading of respective electrical parameters i.e., voltage ,current ,power and energy units consumed using Arduino Microcontroller .With this values we can know the consumption of power. This project provides a vital solution for Energy Monitoring System using Internet of Things(IoT) technology that enables us to develop the system without human interference and with the use of smart energy meter to read electrical energy consumed to get an accurate reading.
