The rise in electricity consumption, especially in the health sector, has heightened concerns about electrical safety, particularly leakage current in medical equipment. The main objective of this research is to develop an IoT-based leakage current monitoring system specifically designed for low-voltage medical devices, aiming to enhance safety and prevent electrical hazards such as electric shocks and equipment damage. The system used two current sensors module (PZEMT-004T) to measure leakage at points near the voltage source and medical components. Data were processed by a microcontroller and transmitted to a web server for real-time monitoring via mobile devices. Testing on humidifiers and ECGs showed average accuracies of 90.11% and 92.49%, respectively, within a 10 mA range. However, the system could not detect currents below the 3 mA safety threshold because of the sensors reading limitation at 10 mA, indicating a need for sensor improvements. The IoT-based system enhances medical equipment safety, with future work focusing on better sensors and AI for predictive maintenance.
