Raspberry-Based Control System for the Future House

Abstract

According to aired TV announcements, any accidents are caused by the improper installation of electrical and control devices. Therefore, a person highly skilled with a certificate of expertise specifically in installing electrical and control systems is needed to carry out the installation to avoid the danger of short circuits. Therefore, this research aims to develop software capable of controlling all electrical devices of a house based on a raspberry-based control system with the tools executed by a smartphone to ensure adequate securities. The results showed that the raspberry-based electrical control system functions properly, both on the security system (MCB) and various controlled loads. This was further determined by carrying out research trials using smartphones and a manual switch button on the boarding house, which also showed that the application and interface of the raspberry-based electrical control system function properly, as evidenced by the results of the full system trial, using local IP, internet networks, and smartphones.
