Abstract

The development of power sector and enhancement of power utility grids in Bangladesh has always been lethargic. Resources were also not adequate to meet the demand of a fast growing population. According to recent surveys, 48% of the people of Bangladesh have the facility of household electrical consumption. Interestingly the consumption varies according to the types of electrical appliances used and the income level of the families. Our main object is to analyze the power loss and the consumption of different household electrical appliances on the basis of income level in different regions of Dhaka city ranging from financially influential family to moderately mid income based families. Then creating different comparison charts of how the power consumption varies on the basis of different households and also providing future solutions of how to optimize it. In order to collect the data of the household power loss, we developed an energy monitoring Arduino based system using AC to AC power adapter to measure the energy consumption of household. Also detected the deviation from the rated power and try to find the power loss due to harmonics.
