Abstract

The use of electricity has become a major need for all people. The amount of electrical energy consumption by each consumer is measured using an electrical device, namely a kWh meter. Manually recording the meter by PLN officers to the customer’s house is certainly not efficient because it requires more energy and time, especially if the customer is not at home. Therefore, this study aims to design a smart energy meter using Modbus protocol based on IoT (internet of things) as an electricity-saving effort. This study uses an experimental method by designing system hardware and software. The microcontroller is used as a system controller. Communication between the microcontroller and power meter equipment (digital kWh) uses the RS-485 Modbus protocol. Power meter data in the form of current, voltage, power, and electrical energy will be sent to the cloud via a microcontroller using the MQTT (Message Queuing Telemetry Transport) protocol which is connected to the internet network so that customers’ electrical energy consumption can be monitored remotely. in real-time via a computer or smartphone.
