Repair and Modify Different Types of Extension Electric Board

 | Repair and Modify Extension Electric Board)



In this project, I am doing Refurbish, Repair and Modify of Different Types Extension Electric Board. We all have Extension Electric Boards at home but some of them are in a damaged condition so they need to repair or modify so don't throw them in the garbage. Now it is time to Refurbish, Repair and Modify the Extension Electric Board, here I am having three different types of Extension Electric Board which I will going to Repair.
The first one is a central body of the old circular electric board and I also need the Load Meter in my Lab to measure the power consumption of devices so I bought Digital Power Meter and attached it to the old switchboard and fitted it in 3D printed Body.
The second one is an old PC Extension Electric Board and it was not badly damaged so I repair it with new wiring, paints and Screws.
The third one is a simple Extension Electric Board which I am using in Lab for Machines but I always have to turn off things manually. Adding WiFi And Relay to the Extension Electric Board was a great thing to do with it and so that I can control any machine through WiFi.
Load Meter

Load Meter is very helpful for measuring power consumption by electrical devices. This Load Meter can measures power load upto 23Kw energy.
Materials




1) Old Circular electric board
2) Power Cord - 1.5m
3) PZEM-022 100A AC Digital Power Monitor Voltmeter Ammeter Frequency Factor Meter
4) Screw- 4 quantity (8mmx3mm)

Modifying the Extension Electric Board With WiFi Relay IoT


All we want is remote controlling of electrical switches by using WiFi Relay. Doing turn ON/OFF switches manually many times becomes hard for me in my Lab. So I use some relay modules with Esp8266 for WiFi controlling. All these electronic modules are fitted in the 3D Printed Box external to Extension Electric Board then on Plywood.
Also, this is the best option for the customization of the WiFi Extension Electric Board at an affordable price.
Supplies



1) 2 channel Relay - 4 quantity
2) Esp8266
3) Screw (8mmx3mm) - 4 quantity
4) Wires
5) 5V adapter for Esp8266 (phone charger)

Rewire the Electric Board (wiring Direction)


Take two wires from all switches and insert in each relay to common pin and NO pin.
Noted: All Switches should remains close position for operating remotely.

The two wires from all switches and insert in each relay to common pin and NO pin.
And Data pin of all relay should go to there respectively assign pin of Esp8266. I am using 5v adapter to power up the Esp8266 externally.
Noted: I don't know IoT programming, that why I am sharing code here. But there many program codes available online you can use it.
Close All Lids With Screws and Test Run It!!!!

The Result was Awesome now I can control all my machine through my phone.
