ENERGY MONITORING SYSTEM

Abstract: Residential and industrial power systems are essential in the modern world, but traditional solutions often end up being expensive and cumbersome to manage. Given below is a project that shows how to monitor and balance power using Arduino for managing electrical load. The push buttons-based interface provides quick command and parameter input for real-time monitoring, and control of the system. A voltage regulator and current sensors measure the power that is consumed, with data being read by an Arduino Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) which displays it on a LCD. This flexible and cost-effective system achieves balanced power distribution, prevents overloads, and maximizes energy utilization with the ultimate objective of improving efficiency and availability in many types of applications.
