This paper presents the design and development of a reliable tracking and recording system to monitor energy that has been consumed by electrical appliances. The electrical energy resources management is a major concern worldwide especially toward the waste of electricity. The current electrical energy monitoring system can only be viewed when attached to the device and it is more difficult to track all devices at one time. The energy production is depending on the energy management activities to minimize the environmental impacts. Therefore, we introduce the Electrical Energy Consumption Monitoring System over IoT, targeted to measure electrical energy for home appliances such as air conditioners, water heaters, fans, lighting and others. The monitoring system consists of an electrical current sensor and a Raspberry pi IV microcontroller as the main core. The system will measure energy based on the rate of current flowing through the cables of electrical equipment and subsequently the energy consumption can be calculated. The measured values can be accessed directly via computer or smartphone. These reading values are stored in a database for future reference and comparison. On the server, Node-Red, influxDB and Grafana were installed. The use of IoT technology allows the rate of electricity consumption to be monitored anywhere quickly and accurately even at a distance.
