Summary: | Energy consumption has become one of the major problems in Indonesia. The use of recent technology is highly beneficial since various automation could be done even in simple devices. In this research, portable smart home modules based on the internet of things (IoT) technology to monitor the power consumption in household electrical devices were built. The module consisted of current sensors, voltage sensors, and IoT Wi-Fi Development Board. It communicated with the server, built using the Raspberry Pi, using the MQTT protocol. The server was equipped with web pages that allowed users to monitor the devices’ electrical power usage. Therefore, all of the connected modules could be monitored to provide information regarding an electric household device’s defect. The results had shown that the prototypes of the modules had been successfully built. It was shown that very slight differences were found between the system measurements compared to the manual one using the 60 seconds interval measurements. The power consumed by the module was very low, where the current sensor uses 0.125 Watt while the voltage sensor uses 0.001 Watt. The portable devices were developed in the shape of small boxes; therefore, it could be easy to move and install. |
