Abstract

The energy meter or kWh meter are use to measure the energy that has been used by the consumer. The existing system use the analog and digital energy meter, that only measure and display energy consumption in unit value, not displaying in real-time value. It also not saves the history of consumption if any analyzing is needed. Refer to that problems this project can improve the system by displaying the real-time usage of energy and display it in kWh then sent the logged data to the memory. The logged data from memory can also be viewed in GUI and then analyze if needed. The microcontroller is use to process the input signal from the sensor that measure the energy. While for display device, the generic serial LCD is used. Logging data is stored in computer hard disk and a Hall Effect sensor is use to capture the energy. The USB converter is also integrated so it can communicate with computer. The interface to display the logging data is created using computer GUI that can also display energy graph. The real time energy graph is very useful in making analysis because the different in usage can be easily spotted, so user can make appropriate action in order to use energy efficiently.
