This document describes an "Energy Consumption Indicator" system that monitors household energy consumption and notifies consumers when consumption reaches a predefined threshold. The system uses an Arduino Mega microcontroller connected to an energy meter circuit to continuously monitor energy usage parameters like voltage, current and power. When consumption reaches the threshold, the Arduino sends a notification via Raspberry Pi to the consumer's mobile phone using SMS. The goal is to increase consumer awareness of energy usage to help lower electricity bills and reduce excessive consumption. A prototype was built and tested that successfully sent alert messages to a phone when threshold values were reached.
