A smart framework for power distribution and load balancing using Arduino

This paper presents the design of monitoring and controlling system for different industrial loads using Arduino. The proposed model highlights the automation of loads. The proposed model is based on two important factors i.e., reliability and accuracy in its monitoring and controlling parameters. The proposed model is built on Arduino which provides a cost efficient alternative to existing solutions widely based on Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) and Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA). When evaluated through experimental setup, the model gives results in good agreement with the simulation results in terms of efficiency and performance.
