PILICITA-GARRIDO, A. E.  and  CEVALLOS-DUQUE, D. C.. Technological innovation of a Comprehensive system to monitor Electric consumption. Ingenius [online]. 2019, n.22, pp.9-16. ISSN 1390-860X.  https://doi.org/10.17163/ings.n22.2019.01.

The present work focused on the design and implementation of an integral system to monitor, locally and remotely, the electrical consumption generated in the different environments within a home. In this way, it was considered the creation of a prototype capable of measuring the current consumed every minute, by the different loads connected to the electrical network in different environments of a home. A wireless network based on Zigbee technology was used to transmit the data from the prototypes to a server that is responsible for receiving the data when there is a consumption of electricity in the home. The data is processed and subsequently stored in a database. Finally, a web page was implemented that graphically shows a history of electricity consumption, which the user can access locally or remotely and quickly and practically monitor the electricity consumption within the home. For the development of this integral system, the operation of current sensors, voltage dividers, Xbee modules was analyzed, and the application was developed with the use of Open Source software such as Java, MySQL and PHP. Currently, the user only has the monthly readings, delivered by the electricity service provider, ignoring the reality about critical environments within the home. Through the proposed system. The user can know in any place and at any time the electricity consumption generated in specific areas, and thus take appropriate energy saving measures.
