Description
Summary:This paper presents a home energy consumption monitoring system and alerts on Ubidots Cloud Services. In this research work, an Internet of Things (IoT) framework has been implemented to monitor the energy consumption data at home and send the energy consumption data to IoT Cloud. The system utilizes a sensor module (ACS712) that connected with Intel Edison microcontroller to measure the power consumption at the home. The power consumption data is collected and stored into Ubidots IoT Cloud Services. The consumers can monitor the energy consumption at home on daily basis and therefore can control the amount of energy usage daily. The data collection experiment is carried out to see the amount of power consumption at home. The power consumption data is also displayed on the LCD for before and after the load is connected on the system. The IoT dashboard accessible online by user to look into their daily power consumption using IoT dashboard. IoT Cloud perform some event analytic on the collected power consumption data and notify home owner a caution, recommendation through email and telegram which will alert their client about their electrical power utilization have exceed their power consumption limit, thus helps to reduce over usage of power. © 2019 IEEE.
