ANALYZER AND AUTOMATED DATA ACQUISITION MONITORING
SYSTEM”.

Major Adviser: Mrs. Lorna T. Soriano,MIT

This new product development study aims to answer the present problems of the

designing a Low Cost Single Phase AC Power Analyzer and Automated Data Monitoring

System. The study pursued to an answer the following questions: 1.What is the design of

the Low Cost Single Phase AC Power Analyzer and Automated Data Acquisition

Monitoring System? in terms of a.)Hardware b.) Software 2. What are the

significant contributions of the Low Cost Single Phase AC Power Analyzer and

Automated Data Acquisition Monitoring System? a.)Technology Development b).

Economy c).Efficiency

The present Single Phase AC Power Analyzer in the market today are very

expensive . Which average-income consumers and schools cannot afford to buy this

device . The device front end measuring power analyzer module that students and

professionals can easily integrate to any circuit and systems requiring, AC power
 vi

measurements functionalities. It can accurately measure root mean square (rms) Voltage

and Current, and with phase information, resolve these into data components essential for

a comprehensive AC Power Analysis Measurement results are streamed out through a

Transistor Transistor Logic (TTL) Universal Synchronous Receiver/Transmitter (UART)

compatible serial port. Data output format is available in CSV form, making data

collection task easy for the microcontroller or PC.

AC Power Analyzer gathered the data based from the different connected in

the AC line. Of this instrument and equipment for measuring power analysis and power

consumption to display the accurate power consumption. The electrical consumer

become aware in using electrical load appliances because they can see the display of

watt-hour, current, and power in watts. In fact, it is possible to build a standalone AC

power measuring instruments with the addition of serial LCD display that can measured

the following parameters volt, amp, real power, apparent power, reactive power and

power factor for supervision of data acquisition.

The Low Cost Single Phase Power Analyzer and Automated Data Acquisition

Monitoring System are equipment and measuring device used in the design that could

answer the present and future need of the students,teachers and the school for . This

device is pioneering technological innovation for applied sciences and technology. The

cost of the materials approximate to Php 2,224 that include the material List of the

hardware .
