Real-Time Monitoring, Analysis and Control of Power Parameters in Residential Houses Using LabVIEW

Abstract

Electrical energy consumed in residential has an important value in total consumption. For this reason, monitoring and control of the electricity consumed in the residential offers a significant potential for energy saving. In this study, the power parameters of the linear and nonlinear loads used in the residential have measured, analyzed and controlled in real time. Thanks to real-time monitoring, analysis and control of power parameters ensure efficient use of energy. For this, power parameters of the loads used have transferred to the computer thanks to the data acquisition card. A visual interface has been created with the software designed in the Laboratory Virtual Instrument Engineering Workbench (LabVIEW) program so that the data transferred to the computer can be monitored and controlled instantly.
