Abstract	Inverters are typically installed on rooftops or ele- vated platforms, making continuous monitoring of fluid levels challenging. These systems serve as a crucial backup power source during electrical outages. A reduction in fluid levels below a predefined threshold, if undetected, can lead to re- duced battery efficiency, decreased lifespan, and overheating. Overheating may cause the emission of hazardous gases such as hydrogen sulfide, posing health risks. Traditionally, fluid levels are manually monitored by physically inspecting battery caps, which is inefficient and unreliable. Existing automated solutions, such as float switches and ultrasonic sensors, present limitations including high cost, complex integration, and restricted real-time monitoring capabilities. To address these challenges, an Internet of Things (IoT)-based monitoring architecture is proposed, which incorporates a fluid level sensor connected to an ESP32 microcontroller. The system transmits sensor data to the ThingSpeak cloud platform for real-time analysis. A binary decision-making algorithm evaluates the fluid status, and alerts are generated using IFTTT-based automation, providing real-time push notifications to the user’s mobile device when fluid levels fall below the critical threshold. The experimental evaluation indicates that the system provides timely and accurate notifications, with an average response time of less than 5 seconds. The solution provides a cost-effective, scalable, and efficient method for monitoring the level of inverter fluid in real-time, enhancing operational safety and extending battery longevity
