[0002] Metered sockets are electronically controlled sockets developed to meet the convenience of people's daily lives. Their design features sockets on the outer shell, with a metering control circuit connected between the sockets and the power cord. This circuit allows for easy monitoring of the active power, cumulative electricity consumption, RMS current, RMS voltage, grid frequency, power factor, cumulative usage time, carbon dioxide emissions, and electricity cost of appliances powered by the socket. When the power consumption of an appliance exceeds the overload alarm threshold, the system alarms and disconnects the power supply. With the improvement of living standards, electricity supply shortages in some areas have severely impacted daily life, leading to annual power rationing measures. WIFI metered sockets effectively help users manage and optimize electricity use, achieving energy savings, reducing electricity consumption and carbon dioxide emissions, while also improving the safety of electrical appliances.
