Power management system based on ZigBee

Human life has changed since energy scarcity and climate change. We consider that building of high energy consumption. In this study, we propose a method to solve this problem by ZigBee Wireless Sensor Network (WSN). We use ZigBee WSN and Hall current transducer to monitor power consumption of load for each sensor node. If the power consumption of load is higher than maximal power, the ZigBee WSN will cut off the load to avoid disaster. We consider that ZigBee module must be small, so we develop own ZigBee Module that call “ZBee”. In this study, we develop the friendly user interface (UI) by National Instruments (NI) LabVIEW. The host join to ZigBee WSN, tablet, computer and smart phone by way of Internet. The manager can achieve energy saving effect by the system. The complete design has been installed in our laboratory. The main purpose is convenience to prevent extra power waste.
