Popis: It's obvious we love Arduino due to its simplicity but it does not lack in handling complexity. We have put together a list of ideas using Arduino as utility metering. We have included the hardware design, software and wireless topology system used. Our design is capable to preform multi-utility-metering, utility real time load profiling and a novel utility waveform capture logging. In this paper we present off-the-shelf modules that could easily build and be programmed to fulfill utility metering transformation and integration with the existing utility meters. The same hardware can be used as multi-utility-meter, load profiling or waveform capture with just a program flicker. Our utility meter can be used for detecting energy expenditure breakdown per appliance, power hungry faulty appliance and recognition of occupant activity. It also helps empower building owners of energy awareness.
