Abstract
The Intelligent Smart Switch Board, with Automatic Safety Control, is designed as an IoT-based intelligent power management system to enhance electrical safety by providing the user with real-time monitoring of electrical energy consumption and the ability to remotely control electrical loads in their home or small industrial facility. The Smart Switch Board is built around an ESP32 Microcontroller and uses a PZEM-004T Energy Meter Module to accurately measure voltage, current, power, energy usage, frequency, and Power Factor for each of the loads. The Smart Switch Board continuously monitors the electrical parameters of the loads, unlike traditional switchboards which do not provide live monitoring, and will automatically isolate the loads if any anomalies are detected. The Smart Switch Board also contains an MQ2 (smoke) Sensor and an Infrared Flame Sensor that can be used for early warning of electrical danger due to smoke or fire, in order to mitigate environmental disasters. As soon as the microcontroller detects an overload, smoke, or fire condition, it will shut off power to the affected load, using a relay-based switching mechanism. The user will be able to view in real-time via an LCD 16×2 display, the real-time value of each of the monitored System Parameters and will be able to access the Blynk IoT Cloud platform to view/control the system via a web-based dashboard.
Keywords: Smart Switchboard, Internet of Things (IoT), Auto Safety Control, ESP32 Microcontroller, Energy Monitoring, Overload Protection, Fire Detection, Smoke Sensor, Relay Con- trol, Home Automation, Electrical Safety, Real-Time Monitoring, Fault Detection, Smart Energy Management.
