摘要: Microcontrollers have been largely used in applications that include reducing power consumption. Microcontroller development tools are now readily available. Many countries faced with energy challenges such as lack of enough capacity and growth demand. It is therefore important to introduce innovative methods reduce reliance on national grid supplement this source alternative methods. In study, the microcontroller monitor consumed by household equipment then decide, based demand available solar energy, type be used. research, a special circuit was also designed control geyser align it renewable source. This includes Dallas temperature sensor triode for alternating current (TRIAC) included output drawn from low power, Alternatively, two heating elements may instead TRIAC circuit. The first element powered maintain water save energy. second initial heating, saves time. strategy adding programmed microcontroller-based or one controlled whereby Photovoltaic (PV) geysers consume domestic electricity when they not use. A microcontroller, sensor, battery level relay board incorporate solar-based commercial supply.
