ENHANCEMENT OF DIGITAL ENERGY METER INTO A SMART ENERGY MONITORING AND ABNORMAL LOAD DETECTION SYSTEM
The proposed project introduces design to incorporate smart energy elements in to a standard digital energy meter to apply the continuous energy monitoring and abnormal load detection features of a smart energy meter. This system incorporates ESP32 microcontroller, which is enhanced with a PZEM-004T v3.0 Energy Meter Module and an ACS current sensor to read the real-time voltage, current, power, and energy use. The system consists of a system of multiple relay controls to manage loads and a buzzer to indicate abnormal load conditions like over voltage, low voltage, overload and high energy consumption. The data obtained is shown on a LCD and can be viewed on ThingSpeak, an IoT analytics platform service to analyze and visualize data. The system also leverages machine learning capabilities on historical energy data gathered on the cloud by IoT to conduct the load forecasting. It forecasts the future power usage and allows intelligent and proactive energy control. This system is a cost-effective and reliable solution as it accurately monitors and identifies over load and can be used in smart grid and home automation applications.
