Abstract :
At the present time, along with the development of the Internet, automation becomes a very interesting theme to debate. This paper discusses the development of automation system for residential electricity cut off using network based embedded controller. Nowadays, various type of device for home residential electricity works dependently on human to control signals to reset the state of input. Based on this situation, it becomes an extrinsic motivation to develop an automated system for residential electricity device. The system consists of an embedded device to control power supply main switch and update the data into data centre. The users able to view updated power consumption as well as billing information in the provider web services. Cut-off warning message is send to users via email and short message services. The system helps the electricity provider to reduce the operation cost as the system could cut off electricity automatically when the usage limit is exceeded.
