Home Energy Monitor 5-4000 W
Budget: ₹600 – ₹1,500 INR
I’m building a compact system for my house that can accurately track loads anywhere from a tiny 5 W device up to a 4 kW appliance. The core requirements are straightforward: measure voltage, current and from those calculate live power consumption, then stream that information in real time rather than batching it for later download.
The hardware has to sit safely inside a residential distribution board, so I need proper isolation, DIN-rail friendliness and components that can handle mains levels without drift. On the software side I’d like a simple dashboard I can reach from phone or browser over Wi-Fi or Ethernet—nothing fancy, just clear, instant figures and perhaps a daily kWh tally.
If you have experience with micro-controller based metering (think ESP32, STM32, ADE series, SCT clamp sensors, shunt resistors, etc.) and can supply:
• schematics + bom
I can handle enclosure printing and mains wiring myself; everything else—from calibration routine to proof-of-accuracy—comes from you. Let’s make a reliable, safe and precise monitor that gives me second-by-second insight into my home’s energy use.
