The Internet of Things for Controlling use of Electricity through the Internet Network

Abstract

The research on internet of things for controlling the use of electricity through the internet network aim to 1) develop the electrical control devices via the internet network system. 2) assess the suitability of electrical control devices via the internet network system. This research develops electrical control devices via the internet network system, the sensor system using microcontroller that connects to the electricity measuring device and magnetic switch for measuring system and electronical controller. The system also has database for storing data and showing the report via web application. The researcher used a quality research method with the questionnaire of electrical control devices via network system by 10 specialists. Based on the results, it could be illustrated that 1) according to the result of the studying and developing the electrical control devices  via internet network system, it found that embedded AI connected to a sensor and on-off control board electric circuit with relay using the ACS712 sensor to measure the current to measure electricity for sending data to the host computer via the Internet network, users can control the operation of the system through a website that supports all devices. In addition, user can control devices via the Internet. When the user commands, the system will send information to the devices that control the electrical system in the house. 2) The results of finding the efficiency of electrical control devices through the Internet network. The results showed that the overall is at a high level with an average of 4.41, which is the highest rating on the performance of information security in the system followed by the evaluation of the performance according to the function of the system. Ease of use performance evaluation results and the performance evaluation results for the needs of the users of the system were a high level.
