IRJET- Power Monitoring with Time Controlling & Data Logging
0 likes29 views
This document describes a power monitoring system that measures and logs the power consumption of electrical devices. The system uses a current sensor to measure current, which is sent to an Arduino microcontroller. The Arduino calculates power consumption based on current and voltage. Data on power usage is sent wirelessly to a database on ThingSpeak using an ESP8266 WiFi module. The system allows setting timers to automatically turn devices off after a certain time period. This helps save energy. The system was tested on various loads and accurately measured and logged their power usage over time to the ThingSpeak database.

Abstract - Now days it is very necessary to save electrical
energy, for that the power consumption of that device
should be very low therefore, we are making a device, which
is connectable to any electrical appliances. This device
calculate the power consumption of those appliances
continuously and continuously creates the database. This
device is wirelessly controllable means we can ON or OFF
that device wirelessly. We can also set timing wirelessly on
this device. After particular timing, the device (home
appliance) will be automatically switched off. We can used
this device to save energy e.g. we can set timing for mobile
charging so that after particular time charging will be
switched off.
Key Words: Current Sensor, Arduino Uno, Database.
1. INTRODUCTION
In order to save the energy and to ensure the
safety of electric equipment the power consumption of
electric device needs to be monitor in real time we present
a design of a low cost system for real time monitoring of
the power which is consumed by the device using
thingspeak (in the graphical format). It is also useful for
energy management to increase the efficiency of
instrument. It Is Useful where alternating current supply is
used and used In Costly Home Appliances.We are
calculating and monitoring Power Consumption through
Micro Controller (Arduino) and stores its data for the later
analysis. We also set timer for any device using our
smartphone and after times up of that device, the device
get automatically turns off.
2. Objective
1. This system removes need of manual handling.
2. Circuit used in device for time counting (timer)
provides safety to that electric device and respective
device prevented from heating effect.
3. Test results are recorded on thingspeak so that any
previous data of testing can be fetched.
4. Monitoring of power is done wirelessly and its
analysis can be done in seconds.
5. It reduces power consumed and also manual handling
involved in the process.
6. Results are sent to the thingspeak database so that
required action can be taken.

would be better than using the local server as the
storage space in could is vast and data could be
fetched from cloud whenever necessary From the

4. METHODOLOGY
4.1 Block Diagram
Fig -1: Block Diagram of Circuit
The AC load is given to the main system. This
system contains the meter, which receives the signal in
continuous form. The controller is the heart or the brain of
the system; it coordinates the functionality of other parts
of the system. It can be any of the microcontrollers; for
this research an Arduino microcontroller was used for
easy prototyping, implementation and emulation of
embedded systems. Fig.2- Block Diagram of the Circuit.
The power fluctuations are monitored using the current
sensor, which is fed to the microcontroller. Relay is an
electromagnetic switch, which operates on small electric
current that turn on or off a much larger electric current.
The live reading of meter is displayed on LCD. For
transferring the data wirelessly, ESP8266 Wi-Fi module is
used. The authorized person continuously receives the
notification regarding consumption of power on the smart
app that power is in the limit. For observation the
Power consumption data will be given to the
thingspeak using Wi-Fi module. Here the calculation of
total power supplied will be monitored and the permanent
record will be stored in database.
5. TOOLS
[1]. Current sensor
ACS712 current sensor is used in power
monitoring system. It provides precise solutions for AC or
DC current sensing which is suitable in industrial,
commercial, and communications systems.
Fig -2: current sensor
The device consists of a precise, low-offset, linear
Hall circuit with a copper conduction path located near the
surface of the die. Applied current flowing through this
copper conduction path generates a magnetic field which
the Hall IC converts into a proportional voltage. Device
accuracy is optimized through the close proximity of the
magnetic signal to the Hall transducer.
The output of the device has a positive slope
(>VIOUT (Q) when an increasing current flows through
the primary copper conduction path (from pins 1 and 2, to
pins 3 and 4), which is the path used for current sampling.
The internal resistance of this conductive path is 1.2-mΩ
typical, providing low power loss. The thickness of the
copper conductor allows survival of the device at up to 5×
over current conditions. The terminals of the conductive
path are electrically isolated from the signal leads (pins 5
through 8). This allows the ACS712 to be used in
applications requiring electrical isolation without the use
of opto-isolators or other costly isolation techniques. The
ACS712 outputs an analog signal.
[2]. Arduino for communication
Arduino is a series of credit card-sized single
board computers. We have used Arduino for
communication as it is efficient in cloud computing. It
supports full edged operating system. It has several pins
which facilities us to connect sensors and other devices to
make computation easy. Arduino Allows embedding with
hardware device. Arduino is low cost. Arduino quad core
with 1GB RAM. An Arduino is a microcontroller
motherboard. A microcontroller is a simple computer that
can run one program at a time, repeatedly. It is very easy
to use. A Raspberry Pi is a general-purpose computer,](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/irjet-v6i473-190614091249/85/IRJET-Power-Monitoring-with-Time-Controlling-Data-Logging-2-320.jpg)

represents the rate at which energy is converted from the
electrical energy of the moving charges to some other
form, e.g., heat, mechanical energy, or energy stored in
electric fields or magnetic fields”.
P = V I
POWER= VOLTAGE X CURRENT
Here taking a voltage as a predefined data and on
the calibration of current, the power will be calculated.
3. CONCLUSIONS
The above presented project was successful in
what it had to achieve. Our main objective was to monitor
power consumption of electrical equipment’s and to
maintain history of that data on database. When the time
given by user ends up, the power supply will cut off
automatically. The major point is we have been able to
record all the details obtained in our monitoring on
database. The results can be viewed and fetched whenever
required. The monitoring of power can be done wirelessly
using this system. Hence, we have tried to achieve all our
objectives.
