Abstract

Inadequate lighting can hinder outdoor activities such as traffic or pedestrian access. Solar street lighting system is planned to provide sufficient lighting for roads lacking proper illumination. DIALux software uses simulation to determine the lamp power and pole specifications, followed by applying formulas to establish component specifications. In this research, a performance comparison based on voltage drop and power losses will be conducted for solar street lighting systems with decentralized and centralized systems. With a road length of 130 meters and a width of 5 meters, simulations were performed for each variable of lamps (10, 12, 19, and 30 Watt). The calculations show that 4 streetlights are needed, and simulation results indicated that the most suitable lamp power is 12 Watt. The analysis showed that the centralized and decentralized designs do not have voltage drops exceeding the applicable limit. However, the centralized design has higher power losses amounting to 3.68 Watt. Another advantage of the decentralized design is its independence, with each load powered by a separate solar panel, while the centralized design is vulnerable to the overall system. In conclusion, the decentralized design is more suitable for implementation after comparing the centralized and decentralized designs based on the voltage drop and power losses.

Abstract

This community service establishes a collaborative effort between Parahyangan Catholic University and SMAK 1 BPK PENABUR Bandung to enhance the TechnoCreator program through community involvement. The program aims to enhance students' understanding of electronics by incorporating advanced technologies like the Internet of Things (IoT) and machine learning. It also introduces the concepts of Industry 4.0 and technopreneurship. The research entailed conducting a series of focused group talks, often known as focus groups, to ascertain the material and learning requirements. Additionally, an extracurricular curriculum for robotics was developed. The outcomes are the creation of novel educational programs, maintenance of guest lectures, strategic planning for the construction of an ESP32-based Internet of Things kit, the design of a prototype industrial automation system, and the implementation of a supplementary robotics program aimed at enhancing students' preparedness for advanced studies in electrical engineering. The activity also seeks to facilitate the transfer of students from secondary education to college. The result implies that this project effectively enhances student learning experiences and can be used as a blueprint for comparable technology education programs in the future.
