Smart Electrical Devices Control with Intrusion Detection Alert

The consumption of electrical energy always increases every year where one of the causes is lifestyle. A bad lifestyle such as forgetting to turn off the unused electronic devices when they are leaving home is one of the factors for increasing consumption of electrical energy which results in waste. This can occur because the device control system is still done manually. One solution to solve this problem is to implement a remote device control system. Several studies have developed a remote-control system but it is not equipped with features that can determine the condition of the device in normal or damaged conditions, so it is difficult to identify the success of the control. In this paper, an Internet of Things-based electronic device control system has been designed and built which is equipped with a device condition monitoring feature. Light, temperature, thermal and electric current sensors are embedded in the system to determine the condition of the device. The control test on the system was successful with an average response time of 3.32 seconds and the accuracy of sensor readings above 89%. With the implementation of this system, users can easily monitor and control electronic devices anywhere and anytime so that the opportunities for efficient and effective use of electrical energy can be further increased.
