Internet of Things is an ecosystem of devices that are capable of detecting, processing and communicating with
the Internet. Recently, the Internet of Things applications that make our business and social life easier are spreading
rapidly. In this study, a software controlled smart socket equipped with the Internet of Things technologies for
energy management of electrical appliances and its development processes is presented. The implemented system
consists of two main parts, hardware and software. In the hardware part, Wemos D1 with ESP8266 Wi-Fi module
as a microcontroller for calculation and communication processes, an ACS712 current sensor to measure current
consumption and a relay for on-off control is used. Schematic drawings of the hardware design are given to guide
IoT-based application developers. The software part consists of Firebase cloud platform for data storage and a
mobile application developed for smart socket control. The developed smart socket offers users many features
such as on-off control over the internet, real-time and past monitoring of energy consumption, awareness of
planned electrical outages, and overcurrent protection defitinition as software etc.
