An IOT Based Smart AC Electricity Meter with Tamper Protection I decided to create a Smart AC watt-hour meter after experiencing a spike in my electricity bill that left me both shocked and curious. Each month, I tried to be mindful of my energy use, but I realized I had no clear way to track which appliances were consuming the most power or when. I also noticed that many homes and businesses around me faced similar challenges,… |
