SCADA BASED DATA ACQUISITION SYSTEM

The aim of this work is to propose a low-cost device for monitoring energy consumption of household equipments or smaller industries, based on the Arduino platform as a Data Acquisition (DAQ) module. An open source software Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition (SCADA) is used for simulation of data onto computer. The proposed system allows them to be identified the highest demands of energy consumption of a home or small industries with a consumption reduction goal.  This work is an attempt to develop a DAQ system using the Arduino platform. The existing method is used only monitor the electrical load, but the proposed method is designed to monitor and control the electrical load at a time or one by one as per the demands. Based on the scheduled algorithm, the SCADA tool will work also as per the demands of electrical load. The main objective of this work is to save the power consumption of electrical devices. With the help of Global System for Mobile (GSM) it is easy to continuously monitor and control the data acquired by an Android Application.
