IOT Based Smart Energy Meter
Abstract
This paper proposes an IoT based smart energy meter designed to monitor and manage electricity consumption efficiently. The system utilizes a combination of sensors and IoT technology to provide real-time monitoring of energy usage. It integrates an energy measurement module, a microcontroller Arduino UNO, ESP8266 Wi-Fi module, and a cloud platform ThingSpeak for data visualization and analysis. Key electrical parameters such as voltage, current, power, power factor, frequency and energy are measured and transmitted to the cloud for remote access. The smart energy meter enables users to monitor their energy consumption from anywhere, helping to optimize energy usage, reduce costs, and contribute to sustainability. This approach offers an affordable and scalable solution for intelligent energy management in residential and industrial settings.
Keywords: IoT, smart energy meter, energy optimization, load management.
