To enhance energy efficiency and safety for educational environments, this article
evaluates the Classroom Power Management and Control System. There are five power
management devices in the system. Each one has a PZEM-004T power meter, a current
transformer, and an ESP8266 microcontroller. This lets the system accurately track how
much energy is being used in real time. In the main work, functionality tests showed that
the behavior was always the same, with an average voltage of 226.9 V, an average
current of 0.827 A, and an average power size of 187.81 W. The system's energy
efficiency performance resulted in a 12.3% increase in luminous efficacy compared to
manual usage. It also effectively identified and corrected any inefficiencies with energy
use. The system provides valuable insights into energy usage patterns, which can help
minimize waste. The evaluation of the prototype resulted in an impressive average score
of 4.59, showcasing its excellent functionality, user-friendliness, and reliability. The high
workability score of 4.63 demonstrates the practicality of utilizing locally available
materials and tools, making it suitable for classroom environments. Furthermore, the
system improves safety by identifying electrical hazards from unattended equipment. In
summary, this system presents a cost-effective, reliable, and user-friendly solution for
monitoring energy consumption, enhancing safety, and promoting energy conservation in
classrooms. The results indicate that it is a practical tool for optimizing energy
management and ensuring safety in educational settings.
