Therefore, there is an urgent need to save electricity as
much as possible. As the new generation of people's
demand for electricity continues to increase, so technology
needs to be improved. The proposed system provides a
technical improvement for ordinary electricity meters
using IOT technology. In addition, we must also solve
other problems, such as monitoring the machine by
monitoring the status and operation of all machines at any
time, so that faults can be found faster. Different types of
sensors, such as temperature and vibration sensors, can
monitor the status and operating conditions of machine
components. Monitoring, optimizing power usage and
reducing power waste are the main goals for achieving a
better system.

IV.ENERGY MONITORING NODES V.ENERGY CALCULATION

To monitor energy usage, we use sentron pac3200; Energy consumed per day can be determined by given

VI.COMMUNICATION PROTOCOL

The sentron pacmeter3200 is accoutred with an


Ethernet interface as a standard. Therefore, there is no need
of additional hardware, this saves space and costs. The
device can thus be configured and measured data
transmitted via LAN networks. The Modbus TCP is
available for selection. An Ethernet interface put up in a
device of this performance class is a very peculiar and
groundbreaking feature. The free SENTRON powerconfig
software is enclosed with the device for configuration. A
direct connection is established between the configuration
PC and the measuring device. With the help of the software,
the various parameters can be sent to power monitoring
devices. This is particularly advantageous if many devices
are connected and various parameteres are connected
simultaneously
