Abstract

Development of Home Energy Management System is a project that able to make home user realize that they are wasting electric power with their careless attitude by graphical analysis method. Careless attitude causes them need to paid extra to the Tenaga National Berhad (TNB). Besides, this project enable user to remote their home appliances over long distance. This factor was helping and makes life become more convenient in future. Can help user easily turn on or off those appliances in the home although, he or she is not at home. This project enable user to reduce energy consumption in each home. By creating this project I have to use Arduino Uno board, Ethernet Shield, Xbee shield, Xbee and router. It can be stack up to become a block between Arduino Uno board , Ethernet Shield, Xbee shield and Xbee to save up the space, easy handle and it is called as coordinator. Besides, it is easy to be programmed and testing. For the socket side, Ethernet shield is not used in the stack, because socket side also called as node, it responsible to be sending measured reading to the coordinator and receive command to turn on and off the socket. For the coordinator side is function to upload the data receive from the node then upload to the Xively web server. Furthermore, it also receives the command from the Xively web server key in by user then to the node to trigger on and off of the node. In conclusion, the project is successfully works as expected.
