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