The reported power consumption of each user does not appropriately indicate the actual electrical energy utilized for the intended purposes. The power electrical consumption profile might also be contributed by the power losses encountered in the entire mini-scale electrical network, such as house electrical power installation network, buildings, and offices. Some energy monitoring systems have been developed but have not calculated the amount of lost energy. This information is essential for analyzing energy consumption. In this paper, an Internet of Things-based energy monitoring system is built using the PZEM-004T sensor module, which can simultaneously monitor energy consumption and lost energy. After testing, the built-up monitoring system provided an incredibly high accuracy of 97.96% from the comparison results with two different conventional electrical meter units. The significant impact of using the developed energy monitoring system is that the users can simultaneously monitor the consumption and lost energy and access it from anywhere via the available Internet connection in a flexible and real-time way. © 2022 ICIC International.
