Abstract

A common home consists of some electrical loads such as lighting, laundry appliances, kitchen appliances, climate control equipment, entertainment devices, etc. All devices consume lots of electric power in spite of being on their standby mode. In this chapter, programmable smart plugs with bundled ZigBee (IEEE 802.15.4) are introduced without the need of replacing the present appliances. The implemented software allows programming, controlling and real-time monitoring over TCP/IP platform. Furthermore, an energy management system with smart plugs is also proposed in the system framework to efficiently utilize the energy consumption.
