A GUI Based Monitoring and Controlling for PV Panel Micro Grids Using Single Board Computer.

Electrical Engineering

Smart energy monitoring and controlling unit for micro grids with automatic switching for islanding mode are very crucial for a smooth and perfect operation of solar energy systems. In this project the monitoring system is based on the Graphical User Interface which provides the facility to monitor and control the micro grid from remote location. since it comes with routing functionality, the manual switching of solar energy to the grid can be switched from anywhere in the world. the real time characteristics of solar irradiance and solar power output is plotted. the dashboard provides the input solar irradiance, dc parameters and the ac parameters at the inverter side. in this project a low cost, reliable data logging, efficient monitoring and user-friendly system has been developed. the hardware is designed by using a small single board computer (raspberry pi) and sensors. the node red GUI server runs in raspberry pi and the sensors such as digital LDR, temperature and power measurement sensors for both ac and dc
