Abstract: This paper proposes remote-controllable and energy-saving room architecture to reduce power consumption. To realize the proposed room architecture, we proposed and designed the automatic power cut-off outlet and a RF communication. The proposed power outlet monitors the power consumption for the predetermined time and completely cuts off the power supply when the monitored power is below the threshold value. This power outlet has a function of changing the threshold power, which enables any kinds of home appliances to be applied to the power outlet. To efficiently manage the power outlets and the lights, we proposed the RF communication module. Also if the meter is tampered then admin sends message to cut the supply of that particular meter.
