Smart Meter and Electrical Energy Monitoring Devices

Abstract

Nowadays, electricity bills are increasing from time to time with the increasingly sophisticated technology that uses a lot of electricity at home. With the use of standard meters, consumers cannot predict the use of electricity at home and cannot control electricity use prudently. By using smart meters, consumers can manage their electricity bills from continuing to increase. This project focuses on developing a Smart meter and Electrical Energy Monitoring Device that can monitor the electrical consumption at home and control electricity production by switching off the load. The project used the Arduino UNO to read the information from the AC sensor and send the notification to the consumer through a mobile phone. The project works to monitor electrical appliances and send the notification through Blynk application on the mobile phone.
