Abstract

The smart meter is one of the indispensable devices in the Smart Grid (SG). A smart meter is an advanced energy meter that collects user power consumption data and provides information. Several sensors and control units coordinately work in the smart meter. In this research paper, a novel Smart Meter design is proposed for power measurement data collection to assist end-users for energy savings. The proposed system is a wireless monitoring system to measure the power consumption of electrical appliances at home. The system comprises of Node-stations, which are electrical meters at the customer’s house, and central data collection system that communicates via RF channel. The software at the master station helps store power in memory ICs and displays them graphically in real-time. The Node stations are built using Atmega328P microprocessor and current-voltage sensors, communicating with the Main station via the NRF24L01 module. The Main station uses the Arduino Mega module and stores information on 24C32 ROM chip and performs real-time management using RTC DS1307 IC. The proposed system operates within a distance of 100 m, a delay of 100 ms, and an accuracy of up to 96%. With the proposed system, users can track how much energy is used as well as the associated cost. Moreover, the Management software provides instructions and recommendations to optimize the time and duration of household electrical appliances.
