I know about pulse output from the analog energy meter as described here.
Arduino energy meter pulse counter.
The gas meter has a reflective patch on the first dial and the water meter has a rotating silver notch which comes in handy when reading with an optical sensor.
Extending the arduino energy sensor.
Interrupt based pulse counter.
Used to measure power.
I want to take a pulse output digital pulses from this digital energy meter.
Long pulsecount 0.
So i can give that pulses to arduino uno board for counting and monitoring the pulses.
I have done this task.
1000 pulses kwh 1 pulse per wh void setup serial begin.
I have digital energy meter which commonly used nowadays and arduino uno board.
Calculating energy for the a100c meter each pulse represents 1 1000th of a kwh i e.
Contest my 12 input high precision pulse counter kwh x2f.
The connectivity is like this.
Now that you have this knowledge you can actually take measurements of everything.
Number of pulses per wh found or set on the meter.
Power and energy double power elapsedkwh.
For example in the same way i read my gas and water consumption.
1 wh of energy passing through the meter.
Number of pulses used to measure energy.
Calculating power 3600 seconds per hour 3600j per pulse i e.
Example arduino sketch for interrupt based pulse counting.
1 wh 3600j therefore instantaneous power p 3600 t where t is the time between the falling edge of each pulse.
