Development and Performance Test of an Electrical Energy Monitoring Meter and Data Logger for Remote Areas

This article presents a development and testing of an electrical energy monitoring meter and data logger (Energy Smart Meter: ESM). The ESM is to be used in measuring and recording data for alternating current and direct current in remote areas. It is controlled by a microcontroller. Data reverse send to a recording data and display LCD screen, applications and web browsers. In this article, the basic performance of the electrical energy monitoring meter and data logger were testing comparing to a commercial power quality and energy analyzer. Voltage, current and power of alternating current and direct current were measured. The Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) of voltage, current and power were found to be no more than 0.0508 %, 1.1759 % and 0.3126 % respectively.
