MUMBAI, India, July 24 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641079881 A) filed by Saveetha Institute Of Medical And Technical Sciences on June 29, 2026, for Smart Power Socket With Load Monitoring.
Inventors include Dr. T. Sathish; and Dr Ramya Mohan.
The application for the patent was published on July 17, 2026, under issue no. 29/2026.
Abstract: The Smart Power Socket with Load Monitoring is an intelligent electrical outlet designed to measure, analyze, and control power consumption of connected devices in real time. The system integrates current and voltage sensing modules with a microcontroller to continuously monitor electrical load parameters such as current draw, voltage level, power consumption, and energy usage. Unlike conventional power sockets that only provide electrical connectivity, the proposed smart socket actively tracks load conditions and provides meaningful insights into energy usage patterns. The monitored data can be displayed locally or transmitted wirelessly to mobile or webbased platforms for remote monitoring. The system can identify abnormal load conditions such as overcurrent, overload, or excessive power consumption and automatically disconnect the supply to protect appliances and prevent electrical hazards. The invention supports user-defined thresholds, allowing customized control based on device requirements. Applications include residential homes, offices, industrial equipment monitoring, and smart buildings where energy efficiency and safety are critical. The compact design allows easy installation without major electrical modifications. By enabling real-time load monitoring, remote control, and automated protection features, the Smart Power Socket with Load Monitoring promotes energy awareness, improves electrical safety, and supports intelligent power management. The system contributes to reduced energy wastage and enhanced operational reliability in modem electrical infrastructures.
