"Розумні" електричні апарати для побутового щитка з дистанційним керуванням: огляд ринку, напрями подальшого вдосконалення та досліджень

Abstract

"Smart home" systems are becoming increasingly common in modern society. There are a significant number of "smart" electrical devices on the market: relay switches with electromagnetic or solid-state relays; as well as circuit breakers. The purpose of the work is a comparative analysis of the principles of operation, technical characteristics, advantages and disadvantages of "smart" electric devices for household switch box with remote control that are present at the modern markets and the formulation of proposals to eliminate the identified shortcomings by conducting research and development work. From a generalized comparison, this is concluded that the technical solutions of "smart" devices based on relays are still generally inferior to their "brothers"-circuit breakers, mainly in types of protection. It is proposed to eliminate this significant drawback by using a power supply (AC-DC converter) that supports the appropriate types of protection.
