Abstract

Nowadays, there are many homestays built in Malaysia especially in tourist attraction areas. However, some of homestay owners had to pay a relatively high electricity bill especially during school holidays. The main purpose of this project is to design homestay power switching card system which can reduce the waste of electricity and also to analyze the pattern of power consumption between private home and homestay. Most homestay in Malaysia do not use any tools to control their use of electricity and reduce wastage of electricity. One of the electric saver that sell in the market is capacitor bank and there has another technique to cut OFF the electricity power supply which is Automation of Residential Electricity Cut OFF Using Network Based Embedded Controller. This project come out with the product named “Homestay Power Switching Card System (HOPs-C)”. This project implements Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) as a tool to control the switching system using RFID card and reader. The product also easy and simple operation of power cut OFF system. The power supply will cut OFF when the RFID card is removed from the card holder. When the RFID card is inserted in the card holder and the reader reads the exact number of RFID card, the system will turn on the power supply. This system also will display the amount of power consumption that used in the homestay on the Liquid Crystal Display (LCD). The survey also conducted in order to complete the project. The majority of homestay owners agrees with the project objective.
