Cost-Effective IoT-Based Home Automation Fault Detection and Monitoring System.

At present, automation is common in commercial and domestic applications. In the current state of affairs, automation is not only about controlling things when the users are physically present at that exact place, it specifically means that they can control it from any place within the world. The paper presents web-based home automation with fault detection and monitoring approach. A nodeMCU board is employed as a brain of this method and to establish a connection with the internet. Together with that, a current sensor is employed for fault exploration and monitoring the activity of the appliance. Current is a governing parameter in the electricity world. Each appliance works properly for a selected worth of current. Further, a relay board is employed to regulate the appliances. Thus, in this paper, an infrequent approach is introduced to show the current status of the appliances, that it is on/off. And it additionally provides manual operative approach together with IoT-based automation by coordination of various relays. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
