IoT Based Power Quality Monitoring in Smart Grid

The Internet of Things (IoT) has found extensive use in various industries such as smart grids and industrial fields for energy monitoring purposes. In the context of monitoring Power Quality (PQ) in a smart grid, the Internet of Things (IoT) has emerged as a promising network for enabling such capabilities. This paper presents an IoT-based power quality that is designed for monitoring various Power Quality parameters. To build this IoT-based on power quality monitoring, a flexible microcontroller is utilized to process the voltage and current signals. TheIoT-based smart meter includes a communication module that enables the transfer of data to IoT cloud platforms such as "the things speak". In addition to causing damage to devices, Power Quality (PQ) issues can also result in energy wastage. As a result, conducting PQ analysis can aid in identifying and resolving such issues, ultimately contributing to energy savings. In this method, it is possible to reduce both voltage imbalance and harmonic distortion. Real-time electrical data from consumers can be obtained using an IoT-based software application called "Ubidots".
