They are made up of the stand alone sketches from each section above.
Arduino energy monitor ethernet.
Main unit assembly installed energy monitor measurement board assembly.
Ct sensors interfacing with an arduino.
All the calculations are done in the digital domain on an arduino.
From this idea the energy alerter was born.
Step one gather components.
Now you can upload your sketch onto your arduino if you haven t uploaded a sketch before then follow this guide on getting started.
The energy monitor can calculate real power apparent power power factor rms voltage rms current.
Arduino home energy monitor.
The sketch is the software that runs on the arduino.
For the rest we use dhcp ip address and such.
Assemble the components per the diagram above.
Ethernet mac address must be unique on your network mac reads t4a001 in hex unique in your network byte mac 0x54 0x34 0x41 0x30 0x30 0x31.
1x 9v ac ac power adapter 1x 100kohm resistor for step down voltage divider.
Because your setup ct resistors and input voltage may be different there is a scaling factor in the sketch which you will need to change before you will get.
Upload the arduino sketch.
It is not only capable of monitoring energy usage but can also interact with compatible arduino boards and shields allowing.
It is inspired to open energy monitor of which uses a slightly modified version of emontx v2.
The energy monitor shield is primarily designed to be used for building energy monitoring systems like a customised multimeter but can be integrated into existing systems for enhanced functionality or circuit security.
The arduino converts the raw data from its analog input into human readable values then sends them to the serial port monitor.
The code is shown in the attached images here is the link to download the energy meter code.
The ethernet unit is connected to the router the small box on top of the larger box houses the wireless xbee link.
Below is a screenshot of the web based graphing that can be seen live here.
The project consists of two parts a server and a client both made with an arduino and a couple of ethernet shields.
