The assembling of electrical socket for electricity usage monitor and electronic device control with ESP8266 microcontroller basis

Abstract

Electrical socket to monitor the electricity usage and control the electronic control based on ESP8266 microcontroller was successfully made. This tool was assisted by PZEM-004T module to monitor electrical power consumption. Electricity consumption monitoring and electronic device controlling were carried out through Android application. This electrical socket assembling was necessary to minimize the excessive electric use. Assembling of electrical socket starts with making an electronic circuit design, casing design, and Android applications that are continuing with the component manufacturing process. The measurement result of electrical energy was done by using a device made with energy meter showed measurement errors with an average error of 5.31%
