This paper describes the development of Smart Plug using power line communication. The smart plug system is comprised of two main components which are Smart Plug and Data Concentrator. Smart Plug is a wall outlet which is able to measure power consumption and to control (turn on/off) the connected load via UDP protocol. Smart plug will measure the voltage, current, energy and power consumption of electric home appliances that are connected to it and broadcast these data over the distributed power wires. Data Concentrator is a center of data accessing between the user and each of the smart plug in the system. System owners can access the system to get the electricity consumption data in their system or to control the operation of electric home appliances that are connected to any smart plug by a personal computer or a smart device. Each smart plug has 16-bit unique ID for address identification in the system so this system can support up to 65,536 smart plugs.

The acquisition system of user power consumption can collect data with local and remote communication. To solve the problem of local communication in different station areas, we analyzed the characteristics of Chinese power grid in six typical station areas, and found out the combined way of broadband power-line communication and micro-power wireless communication is the best solution. Meanwhile, we proposed three solutions to solve the problem of blind spots in remote communication, including wireless with electric expansion, low-voltage broadband power-line cascade connection and mid-voltage broadband power-line cascade connection [. These solutions of communication can provide technical supports to help building the acquisition system of user power consumption.
