1.6 Thesis Outline

Chapter 1 briefly summarizes the project background and problem statements as well as elaborates the problem statement, objectives, motivation, and scope of the project and thesis outlines. Chapter 2 describes about literature review. The contents include about the development of controlling and monitoring system, SCADA system, HMI and power consumption theory. Chapter 3 is about the research methodology of the project. It discusses in detailed the project development to complete the project. The utilization of software and hardware combination is implemented throughout the project. Besides, the eight cases for load are manually controlled and monitored. All steps from beginning until the end of this project are concluded. Chapter 4 illustrates result and describes the purpose of eight cases. This chapter will conclude that most profitable method to reduce in terms of reduction of energy consumption and bill payment. The payback period on each method will be discussed on this chapter. Chapter 5 presents the conclusion and recommendation of the whole project. 6 CHAPTER 2 LITERATURE REVIEW

2.1 Introduction

This chapter discuss about the brainstorming related with this project. The sources are from part journals and book related with monitoring and controlling system, Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition SCADA system and its application, serial communication and SCADA software via Human-Machine Interface HMI.

2.2 Monitoring and Controlling System

Monitoring and control can be defined as the centralized to control of a system such as devices or network through automated system or managed by control unit either with or without display information. Nowadays, market profile is the main cause described according given to which varies among sector in industrial automation, power grid and critical infrastructure in control and monitoring system [1]. Thus, with the flows to global issue in exploration of monitoring and control system may be affected by the impacts from charging the base for drivers such as in development of services, energy efficiency, cost of oil and gas, safety, security, and others. One of example monitoring and control system that used nowadays is SCADA system. 7
