碩士 === 醒吾技術學院 === 資訊科技應用研究所 === 99 === The first step to improve the efficiency of use energy power is to build up Smart Meter to frame Advanced Metering Infrastructure, AMI. This article used the structure of Advanced Metering Infrastructure as starting point to introduce “Smart Meter which has played an importance role of the green energy policy in many counties. This research has used Zigbee meter to measure real-time voltage, current and accumulated power. All the data went through wireless transmission module to a computer for data process. In addition, to develop a monitoring system through network, including computer surveillance program and signal measurement display. To use this AMI, it can be generated a real data based on the selected time range. In the meantime, it can produce electricity time frame trend and allow users to understand the power status during the period of time. It can indicate when is the peak zone to use the power and provides an alarm services. Then, the users can receive a message when the power is excessive using. In such, it can help users to detect any electronic products which consume electricity to achieve the effectiveness of energy conservation.
