The Smart Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker research is based on IoT& power electronics-based protective switchgear for domestic consumers for the protection against earth leakage faults. In this paper, we have shown how to create a custom web server using HTML and CSS language and hosting this webserver to ESP module using Serial Peripheral Flash File System (SPIFFS). Along with protection against earth fault it provides, controlling of tripping current or fault current, monitoring voltage, power, current, power factor parameters of the connected load, monitoring fault parameters, Indicating the device status whether the ELCB is on or off, and the condition of ELCB it is in faulty condition or healthy condition and to let the user set the value of the tripping current on the webserver at which the ELCB must trip.
