Electric Energy Monitoring Node Design Based on NodeMCU and MQTT Protocol

Abstract

Intelligent electricity management systems can be widely used for monitoring the regional power consumption of enterprises, factories, campuses, properties, etc. To meet the current demand of electricity consumers for monitoring the power data of each node, a node design method based on Modbus and MQTT protocols for monitoring power consumption has been proposed. It can monitor the power, current, voltage, electricity, and other related parameters of the power nodes so that the electricity consumers can control the electric energy data of each power node in real time. The test results show that the node scheme can effectively monitor the data of each power node and realize the real-time monitoring of power consumption data, which shows that the design scheme is effective and feasible.
