Energy meter is a device that is widely used to measure home energy consumption for the billing tariff. The meter measuring energy used (in kWh) by the home appliance. Conventional energy meter only provide payable billing tariff by monthly or quarter which results over usage of energy problem. This problem lead to higher energy billing per house. Despite that, there are no billing indication levels that tell the user about how much they had to pay. The problem that happens in this situation is that the user cannot tell how much they have used the energy along with it appliance. This problem cause the user to use the energy without hesitation and uncontrolled. To solve this problem, there are solutions that can help to solve the problem. Then development of the device in which monitor the watt used along with the billing tariff. With this device, the user can tell by how much they had been charges throughout the day. The Smart IoT Energy Meter is a device that is developed to fulfil the requirement in the electrical billing system. This product has come with a realistic design and functional. It consist of microcontroller and electronic part which measure the current flow through the wire. This device will help the two-way communication between the user and the electrical company. The device are developed to measure and monitor the current, voltage, watt, energy and billing tariff that can be monitor through the Thing Speak channel. Since that, user can monitor the electrical consumption usage throughout the smartphone or laptop. The development of project in the future can give awareness to the user about their energy consumption usage in daily life.
