Smart Home Monitoring System and Prediction of Power Consumption

Abstract

Automation is a popular topic in the twenty-first century, and it has become an indispensable part of everyday life. Human labor, time, work, and some human errors are all eliminated under automation. And also many natural resources are on the verge of Renewable energy sources that have not yet achieved the point of total self-sufficiency are now in danger. In this situation, energy efficiency and appropriate power sharing are essential. In this article, we employed the smart meter concept to continuously monitor energy usage and warn the consumer when it surpasses a specified threshold. A customized Mobile Application and hardware module are created to measure the energy used by each item in a home, estimate the monthly electricity bill, and anticipate power usage for future dates. In this method, the user could now create a preferred bill, and when the electricity use reaches the specified threshold, it will be notified via application.This system furthermore employs a technology to establish a connected device's tracking rate, making it an energy-efficient tool in and of itself. A current sensor, Voltage sensor and a Micro - controller was used to operate the hardware components.The software application was created to keep track of electricity costs. The system uses current data to forecast meter readings for the coming months. and predicts the electricity usage based on their power consumption.
