Build your own fully customizable Energy Monitor for 30 bucks

Arduino UNO with a 2.4 "TFT monitor the consumption of a house
The crisis continues, so If you want to know how much electricity do you need every hour of the day, or switch power contract to the TDH or reduce the contracted power, or make estimates, you can install an expensive energy monitor, or, as we will see in this post, we manufacture ourselves .
IMPORTANT : If your supplier has telemetry on your electricity bill, chances are that hourly consumption can be consulted on the website of the supplier.

Version 1.0 of the program and debugged



I have arisen this little project from the free time of a couple of weeks, an energy monitor based on Arduino, an RTC and a small TFT screen, with many possibilities of use. It's not as good as the "Mirubee Mirubox", that it tells you with graphics and all your habits, but you save € 90, learning Arduino and gives enough info... and you can always improve the program and Arduino to get something that comes close;.) When I finished the project I discovered that I was not the only with good thoughts ... as always . There are many similar projects, most receive LED pulses from the digital counter...

Materials used:

Copy Arduino UNO R3 with TFT 2.4 "


Clock circuit with DS1307

KWh meter with pulse output (opto transistor closes the circuit)

Installing Kwh counter



The first thing I did was install it to check its operation; I simply inserted the pulse counter and the differential between the main output; on this page Nergiza is explained how to install an ICP , it is not the same but will give you the idea where to put it, you have to go between the PCI (Power Control Switch) and the differential . (I've since then, but does not affect the operation of the differential).
There is one detail; it is not necessary to place a big lead in the Neutral because they do not need to load pass by it (used only as a reference so I connect it with 2 mm. cable to Neutral connected to the  differential is worth enough), it is important that the cables connected to 1 and 3 screws are just as big as the power differential phase because there's going to hold the whole load.
In the pole 1 from the main switch and pole 3 have to go to all secondary interruptors.
Important not use this meter for loads exceeding 30A (6600W at 220V); It spoils it, cutting off the current. For that there are other counters more capable and more expensive.

Having no 4mm cable, I used two of 2.5mm in connector 3 (bottom right meter)
Abstain from opening the box if you have no experience with electricity. You can not break the seal of the Power Control Switch (corresponding to the contracted power, if you have electronic meter then this will be included in it).  This switch is housed in a box that is located "just before the rest of devices in a separate sealable compartment". It can be placed in the same box as the general control and protection devices, which should always be near the front door. Never in bedrooms, bathrooms or other rooms in our case is to the left of the picture switches:

Connecting the external clock to UNO

The clock is essential for timekeeping , so we have to connect one battery to keep time in the event that the Arduino is disconnected.
In the next picture you can see the role of the special pins; we need the SDA and SCL clock for the circuit:
http://www.gammon.com.au/uno

As the screen cover all pins of the ONE, I decided to solder directly to the back of the plate with thin wires to circuit connecting the basic clock pin ; + 5V, COM and SDA and SCL. 

RTC module connected to + 5V, COM and SDA and SCL

Preparations for programming

Unfortunately I can not read the pulses using IRQ's with this placed screen because it uses digital pins 2 and 3 of UNO, which are the only ones who have to handle interruptions. 
Therefore optimizing the program to do it fast enough reading sensor and avoid losing pulseshas taken much of their time as they draw on the screen consumes a lot of time (even a simple "delete screen"). But I managed to get something functional without losing pulses. 
But you can well use another combination of hardware for the same use, or directly send the data wirelessly to another part , etc, and if yes you could use pins  interruptions  of ONE or plate used, one for use with the pulses and thus not lost even one,  as shown in the example Arduino . In addition, the meter gives 238-1 1000 pulses / kWh , other equipment giving more pulses and more accurate fuel consumption, but we do not need nor is it recommended unless we use another kind of display that does not disable us pins interruptions  (also could use another full plate as the Due or Mega ).



What a great time I step programming :)

Another issue was how to get the time; luckily had an RTC circuit , and after reading about it to catch when an external clock and use DS1307 RTC chip, which is accurate enough for what we need (discriminate hours), implemented in the program, taking note the hour winter / summer.

This Chinese screen is pretty bad , as discussed in this forum  and in the other (at least my version, they randomly go blank after a while, although the Arduino continues to collect data, and getting better release after release); Also, if you feed the Arduino with external source, is likely to cool the microSD card as you use a ... on the other hand bookstores Adafruit I used are quite slow doing things according to what (0.3 seconds to clear the display is a barbarity), but hey, a gift horse ... serviceable with what is; the false economy of many Chinese products .
So I have fun turning to a program that works, do not lose pulses, collect the data I need and also displayed on the screen; with everything I used bookstores and 23Ks of 32Ks memory has the UNO (with IDE 1.0.6, with 1.6.6 is reduced to 17Ks), and can be further reduced capando bookstores. Another thing is to find the perfect library for your screen , as evidenced by the many users with problems. I used the Adafruit, with a changed to remove the correct colors (in the pictures you can see that at first did not match the colors) line. Since the library is very slow handling text , have resorted to overwrite the data previous watts in black (putting us in the same position), and write only the numeric value and "W". In addition the screen leaves us little free PINES; but just I needed a digital PIN to count pulses, and are free as 0 and 1, I used the 0 (which you can change at the beginning of the program code). The basic operation of the program is as follows:

  1. In the part of  setup synchronize the internal clock with the external RTC initialize and read screen data stored in the EEPROM of the previous session  (important data start uncommenting the lines indicated in the code the first time, and then re- load the program back to discuss them with // as long stored in data format and it will get garbage on the screen).
  2. In the  main routine check if activated pulse , if any, but it was not before, then compare the elapsed time between pulses to  determine the instantaneous power W, and update the screen with the value , as well as update values Watts tip and count the time if you are over the slogan Watts (in order to know if we should lose the contracted power).
  3. Every minute, if we have time to update the screen with all the information, the show  (comparing the time it took last time between pulses), if no time, the update only every two hours to lose the minimum pulse possible.
  4. Every half hour, if there have been changes, we update the information in the EEPROM , indicating on screen. By my calculations, each cell 2 times FLASH EEPROM is updated every day, so even if we did every 10 minutes and not be damaged even within 45 years (100,000 enduring scriptures).
Version 1.0 of the program and debugged

For now, the program shows on screen:
  1. Instantaneous power in W.
  2. Recorded maximum instantaneous power.
  3. Total daily consumption in kWh.
  4. Total consumption in kWh night.
  5. Minutes during which it has exceeded the setpoint (For if we are always consuming less than contracted, to lower power).
  6. Total kWh per hour of accumulated day (saved if you go light).
  7. Current date and time.
  8. Date and time of last saved the EEPROM data (when it occurs).

You have the project on GitHub , and this would be the program v. 1.0: Energy Monitor TFT display with Arduino program:

To test it is enough to join the Arduino pin 0 to pin COM and drop; every time this operation is made it will make a pulse (or more depending on the quality of the connection). Finally place the powered screen as you want (I used a 12VDC transformer, but if you have one of lower voltage between 9 VDC and 6 VDC, better (to extend the life of the regulator that brings the Arduino), and the box we want, I used a Tapper because it will not be there forever), we must economize.

I paste it to the screen by placing a bit of silicone on the sides
The silicone has not worked very well, but with a sponge pressure at least has remained in place.

I put the plug into a power strip to save me welding it ;)

Finally we remove the lid of the box main differential, and I connected the power source of the Arduino to a secondary switch, and the positive (important for it to work), I mean the PIN 0 to positive counter kWh (SO +) and . the other negative (SO-)
