However, the modern era has ushered in a transformative solution \u2013 the Smart Plug. Unlike their traditional counterparts, these innovative devices offer remote monitoring and control via the internet. Beyond simply tracking energy consumption, they provide users with the ability to monitor various critical parameters such as voltage, current, and power consumption through convenient interfaces on laptops or mobile devices, all made possible by the Internet of Things (IoT) technology. Embracing the power of technology, we have further elevated the capabilities of these smart plugs. Our advanced design encompasses not only power measurement but also voltage and current monitoring while incorporating intelligent time scheduling and remote ON\/OFF control. The result is a cutting-edge solution that empowers users to optimize energy usage and enhance convenience in their daily lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Technologies used<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Hardware:-<\/strong> Node MCUESP32 (WROOM32), Hi-Link, PZEM-004T, CT Coil, Relay Module<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Software:-<\/strong> Arduino IDE v1.8.19, Pyhton 3.3, Node_Red<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Technology used:-<\/strong> WiFi<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/gitlab.com\/icfoss\/OpenIoT\/lo-ra-wan-based-smart-plug\">GitLab Repository<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the realm of household appliances, conventional plugs have long served their purpose but are limited by manual control.
