 HOUSE'S MONITORING CONSUMPTION

INTRODUCTION:

Measuring and monitoring electrical energy

consumption of appliances will help in efficient utilization

and in estimation of the energy usage. The world is becoming

more automated and there is need to have more

environmental friendly usage of electrical power in a way to

save energy and to cater for global warming and future

energy challenges. The development and implementation of

smart energy consumption is of much concern among the

utility stake holders and even though the technology is very

much developed but it is still upcoming. The industries have

fully turn to automated systems whereas the residential

setting are mostly left behind in terms of automation and

efficient usage of the electricity. In line with the push for

green environment and energy efficiency procurement, there

is need to have a low cost, robust and simple to use system

that can monitor the electricity in a smart residence. This

Page | 2
may include the use of mobile communication in the

automation system using wireless networks. We may have an

instance whereby the occupants of the house may turn on or

off appliances like air-conditioner or fan before they arrived

using their mobile phone. In actual sense the electricity

challenges differ from country to country, with inadequate

capacity as the major problems in most developing

countries. However, the efficient and minimized usage of

electricity will be most welcomed in any country of the world.

The energy consumption awareness is a great facilitator of

the energy management, therefore making the energy

measurements available to the consumers and even the

utility companies will make them take appropriate action

towards efficient utilization of the energy. Most of the

Arduino researchers limit their works to power measurement

and some of the energy management systems required the

consumer involvement in order to save energy. A home

energy management system that combines measurements

Page | 3
and automatic control without the involvement of the

consumer is required. In this paper an energy consumption

management system is presented. The system is capable of

measuring the power consumption of the loads, the supply

voltage and the total current consumed by the loads. It

encompasses the use of single phase AC voltage sensor

module (ZMPT101B) and Allegro AC current sensor module

(ACS716), that are used to detect the system voltage and

current. This voltage and current sensors used in the system

are relatively cheap, easy to install in an existing system and

reliable7. The sensor outputs are processed through Arduino

Mega 2560 microcontroller board for the determination of

the relevant quantities after which the system will take

decision of reducing the total load when the system load

exceeded the threshold value. The work generally involved

the experimentation and analysis of the sensors to determine

their behavior or responses with respect to the input values.

The instantaneous calculation method is employed after

Page | 4
ascertaining the uniform sensitivity of the sensors. The

research leads to the establishment of a standalone system

that automatically provides the measurements and control of

the house loads consumption with no involvement of the

consumer action. We will show in these report strategies for

measuring energy. Systems for energy monitoring can be

classified according to different criteria, for example, the

type of sensors they use, or the spatial granularity used for

collecting data. With respect to sensors, it is possible to

distinguish between direct, indirect, and hybrid monitoring

systems. Direct monitoring systems use electricity sensors

for directly measuring energy consumption, while indirect

systems infer energy consumption by measuring other

quantities such as temperature and/or noise.

Arduino UNO

Arduino UNO WiFi shield

Arduino YUN

SCT013 current sensor

CAYENNE:

is a great service that give a platform to everybody that

want make an IoT project. Cayenne is a service for IoT and

also MQTT protocol with a great community, and a lot of

tools. You can use Arduino UNO, Arduino YUN, Raspberry Pi,

and more, for create your personal project.

SCT-013 CURRENT SENSOR:

The SCT-013 sensor is a

noninvasive sensor that measure

the Amps of one circuits.

You can use the sensor for

measure the current of your house. You can put the sensor

on wire that outs by the main switch of house.

Page | 7
See the circuits for preparing the sensor before connect to

the Arduino UNO.

Sensor specs:

Name: SCT-013-0302x

Measure: 30A / 100A max

Components:

10 kOhm Resistor

10 uF Electrolitics Capacitors

Library:

You can download the EmonLib library by

https://github.com/openenergymonitor/EmonLib You can install the

library by using Arduino IDE.

THE SYSTEM DESIGN:

The load management is the major work of the

prototype. Likewise, it measures the power consumption

parameters of the system and display them on the LCD

monitor for the purpose of monitoring. Accordingly, the

system supply to the loads is through an eight channel relay

that switch off some selected loads when the total load is

greater than threshold value. This switching off of the loads

is based priority given to the loads on relay 1 to relay 8 and

a beep alarm will sound to indicate that the total load is

higher than the threshold value before it reduces the loads.

Each time a load or loads are disconnected the system will

require pressing the Arduino reset key or it will reset all the

relays after 3 minutes by assuming that the users have

disconnected the overload.

CONNECT TO CAYENNE:

You can open your account on Cayenne.

Sign Up, and after add a device to your Dashboard.

Click on Add new... Device/Widget

After you can click on Bring Your Own Device. Sign your

credentials and after put this values on your Arduino Sketch

code.

Page | 10
CODING:

You must change the MQTT credentials values, and the

values of your WiFi connection. Open the Serial monitor, and

see the board connecting to internet and putting the data to

Cayenne Dashboard. Open your Cayenne Dashboard, and see

the value. You can See this value by using your computer,

your Smartphone, or your tablet. The Dashboard is in the

cloud. Yes, you can see the data wherever in the world.

TEST Project

Now you can test your project. The Arduino UNO board reads

the value of Watt, and puts this online through the MQTT

protocol. This data is stored on Cayenne server that show the

value on Dashboard. You can see the dashboard, and read

the value of Watts directly, everywhere, every time and it's

Page | 11
completely free! You can read the value in your browser, like

if you are in your house.

You can see my dashboard. If I switch on my oven, I can see

changing the value of Watts on my dashboard. The value

goes up until 2400 Watts. I can trigger this value. When this

changes, and begin to goes up, Cayenne can send a mail to

me, that inform me about the consumption.

This is an information for make me aware of the power

consumption of my house. It's is good for the planet, and for

my wallet!

Conclusion:

This work described the development and implementation

of energy consumption management of a smart house.

Through the effort of developing the system a reliable

analysis is done, and its accurate response is found using

Page | 13
polynomial regression. The prototype built is capable of

managing the system loads effectively by not allowing more

than the threshold value of the power (2000W) to operate in

the system and it is equipped with automatic reconnection

capability. It also correctly measures and display Voltage,

Current, Power consumption and power factor of the system.

The power measurement recorded higher error when

compared to the value obtained.
