Flow measurement of charges and electricity costs monitoring system with android based Iot (case study: Boarding house Adelina)

In the Journal of Sensor and Actuator Networks Melanie Swan stated the developing world of the current sensor network that requires the sensor device can be monitored or controlled via the Internet or known as the Internet of Things (IOT). On the basis of interviews conducted at the boarding house Adelina having 1 electric meter between houses and boarding houses. Difficulties in monitoring the use of electricity at his boarding house. While the PLN as the sole ruler of businesses do not yet have a system that can provide electricity usage charges capable of realtime, therefore we need a monitoring system that is able to measure and calculate the cost of electricity consumption in dwellings use. The author uses ArduinoUno equipped with an Ethernet shield as a tool or the brain of the system is developed, the tool is assigned to process all the necessary activities in monitoring the flow of electricity. ArduinoUno necessitate current sensors to monitor electric current and current data captured by the sensors is sent cloud service. In making the system accessible online. The result is a system of monitoring the use of current and electricity costs, the researchers hope to reduce the problems associated with payment, to measure, how to monitor and calculate the cost of electricity.
