Introduction

Today's world is surrounded by technology, and our homes are becoming

smarter. One important part of our homes is the electrical system that powers

everything. The idea of creating a smart system to monitor and control the circuit

breakers in our homes comes from the desire to make our homes safer, more efficient,

and easier to manage. We're using technology like the Internet of Things (IoT) to

make this happen. This system will use IoT to change the way we handle electrical

circuits at home.

Right now, we use a lot of electronic devices and appliances in our homes, but

our electrical systems are old-fashioned and can't keep up. This can lead to problems

like accidents, wasting energy, and not being able to control our circuits from a

distance. Plus, we're using more clean energy and electric cars, which make our

electrical systems even more complicated. That's why we need a smart system to

monitor our circuit breakers. It will help us keep our homes safe, use energy better,

and deal with all the new technology we have in our lives.

Now, we can connect to and control electronics and machines in our homes,

offices, and industries. IoT is especially helpful for keeping track of how much

electricity we use. With the growing need for energy and eco-friendly solutions, it's

crucial to watch and manage our energy consumption. IoT-powered systems can give

us real-time information on how much energy we're using, helping us use it wisely

and reduce waste. Monitoring things like voltage, current, and energy use in our

homes has many advantages, including safety and saving energy. If we don't keep an
eye on these things, it can lead to safety risks, high energy bills, broken equipment,

and wasteful energy use.

Purpose and Description

The purpose of this study is to help people understand what it is and how it

can improve their lives. This system uses technology to make homes safer and more

convenient by keeping an eye on the electrical circuits. It allows us to control things

from a distance and warns us if something goes wrong. By describing it, we aim to

show how this smart system can make homes better and safer in an easy-to-

understand way.

Objectives of the Study

General Objective

The main goal of the "IoT-Based Smart Home Circuit Breaker Monitoring

System" is to create a system that helps people make their homes safer and more

efficient by using smart technology to keep an eye on their electrical circuits.

Specific Objectives

1. Allow people to turn off or on specific circuits in their homes from a distance

using their smartphones or computers, making it more convenient and

efficient.

2. Use smart technology to predict and warn homeowners about potential

electrical problems or overloads before they happen, preventing accidents.

3. Ensure that electrical systems are secure and automatically shut down in

dangerous situations, making homes safer for everyone.


Scope and Limitation

The scope of the Calculator App project includes the following aspects:

Scope

1. The system focuses on monitoring and managing the electrical circuits within

residential homes.

2. The system allows users to remotely control and manage their electrical

circuits through smartphones or computers.

3. It aims to predict potential issues in the electrical system and provide alerts to

prevent accidents or disruptions.

4. This was invented to monitor the electrical parameters of the electricity in a

residential home, especially energy consumption so that the user will be aware

and help reduce electricity bills.

Limitation

1. Implementing the system may require an initial investment in smart devices

and installation, which may not be affordable for all homeowners.

2. You need a good internet connection for the system to work from afar, and if

the internet goes down, the system might not work correctly.

3. The system has a specific range of 15 meters; if you pass more than 15 meters,

you won’t be able to access the IP address of the server on the phone or

laptop.
Significance of the Study

The Smart Home Circuit Breaker Monitoring System holds great importance

due to its potential to significantly improve the safety, convenience, and efficiency of

contemporary households. By incorporating smart technology into our electrical

setups, this system allows homeowners to actively oversee and control their electrical

circuits. It gives them the ability to proactively prevent electrical accidents, minimize

energy wastage, and optimize their electricity usage, resulting in cost savings and an

eco-friendlier lifestyle.
