Future Energy Solutions, a leading provider of components and engineering solutions for the smart grid and home area network, has published a video discussing and demonstrating the benefits of the Freescale/Synapse Plug Meter for home area network (HAN) energy management.
The Smart Plug Meter, which supports a network of up to 256 plug meters, displays energy measurement data and manages energy usage via a wireless mesh networking module from Synapse and a solid-state relay. The reference design provides an "all-in-one-solution," as described by Nathan Lee, Technical Marketing Manager for Future Energy Solutions as he discusses the device on the video with Bruno Baylac, Director of Medical, Metering & Connectivity for the Microcontroller Solutions Group at Freescale Semiconductor.
The Smart Plug Meter is one of the latest power measurement reference designs for smart homes, taking advantage of smart grid and home area network technology to enable load control and accurate energy measurement.
"As the benefits of smart appliances and smart grid energy management continue to increase, the popularity of products such as the Smart Plug Meter will keep growing faster and faster as smart buildings become more mainstream by the day," said Richard Ankcorn, Strategic Business Manager for Future Energy Solutions.
