Abstract
Home automation allows home owners to remotely control household appliances and monitor electrical consumption. This paper entitled Remote Household Appliance Monitoring and Control System using Short Messaging Service (SMS) aims to provide an affordable, easy to use and reliable device which will allow home owners to remotely switch ON and OFF electrical appliances and monitor electrical consumption from one’s home through an SMS notification. The device was designed to include SMS Module, an Arduino Microcontroller, Current Transformer (CT) sensor, and Voltage Sensor. The device capability to accurately read the electrical consumption of the home appliances is compared to a standard multi-tester device reader. The device functionality to switch ON and off a specific line was also tested. The result shows that there is no significant difference between the voltage and ampere readings of the Remote Household Appliance Monitoring and Control System using Short Messaging Service (SMS) to the standard multi-tester device reader. The result also shows that after series of test the device can properly on and OFF a specific targeted electrical line.
