Abstract :
In this paper an embedded remote monitoring and controlling power socket (RMCPS) has been developed with high suitability for automatic and power management of home electric appliances. It requires no new layout and has the advantage of low cost, low electricity consumption, small volume and convenient installation to replace the PC with a Web server construction. The RMCPS consists of three modules: the essential module, the power line communication (PLC) module and the detection module. This allows the user a remote Internet connection to an embedded power socket to both monitor and control home electric appliances.
