Description
Summary:A new method for domestic distribution box control and monitoring is proposed and developed using an interconnection of microcontroller system, android device and server with internet connection. Data acquisition from the supply voltages inside the distribution box and control of the circuit breakers, are performed to analyze the cause of power disruption and to cut off the faulty line which is usually time consuming to perform manually. The system works by automatically testing each of the plugs connected to determine the cause of the failure and isolate it. With the faulty line or lines being found, the appropriate data will be sent to a server through a wireless connection which will then notify the user the modification made. The advantage of this system is to quickly notify the user the disruption occurred, the possible fault location while allowing the user the flexibility to take any further action by switching the circuit breakers to affirm the cause of failure. Parallel processing via multi-threading in server are used to increment the upper limit of TCP transmission's throughput. Multiple SQLite-database will be used by multiple threads for parallel storage of data to increase performance.
