HOME ELECTRICITY AUTOMATION VIA IoT: SMART MOBILE PHONE AND BEACON SUPPORTED PROGRAMMABLE HOME TYPE FUSE

Abstract

In condition of fuse-blowing due to an undesired event (i.e lightning) resulting to short circuit or leakage current on the electrical network system which electrical home appliances are connected to, check of the wiring and re-set of fuse become necessary. Otherwise, refrigerator, deep freezer and security alert devices will not work. Foods like meat, yoghurt etc. which are high in protein will spoil and putrefy. Due to failure of security alert systems, any alert or alarm cannot be activated and any record cannot be done during an attack or burglary. Therefore, these types of devices should not be on failure state for a long time. In addition, another undesired condition about leaving homes for a long time is to be in undesired-working state of the devices. The devices like iron, electrical teapot, water heater and electric heater should not be forgotten on working state. Through a smart fuse, a device can be put to open or closed state. Moreover, these smart fuses can be controlled from the internet via connecting them to a network system. Under favor of the system, all the electrical wiring at home can be controlled and monitored from anywhere.
