Abstract
This work presents an internet of things low cost instrument specially developed to measure and quantify the energy generation of photovoltaic panels. A hub was developed, capable of managing networks with hundreds of nodes, storing the data locally and being able to transmit relevant information to cloud services, besides that, hosts a HTML page for local and internet access to data. The sensor nodes can measure solar panel DC outputs up to 60 V and 30 A. Besides the system was designed to have low-power consumption. A display interface to manage data from many sensors allows view and generate period reports in XLS, CSV and PDF formats.
