Smart meters play an important role in energy management systems as they provide essential parameters for real-time monitoring, protection, and control that enable informed decisions for the end-users and the utility grid. However, available systems are high-cost solutions with different hardware and software, which provide limited measuring parameters with certain accuracy. This work aims to develop and implement an innovative smart electricity meter (SEM) system that surpasses conventional designs by incorporating advanced features like noninvasive sensors, manual signal calibration, and flexible communication modes. The developed SEM supports real-time data transmission via IoT and provides superior accuracy in measuring harmonics and frequency, addressing key challenges in energy monitoring. This work contributes to real-time energy monitoring and energy management systems in residential and industrial applications.
