Several countries in the world, including Indonesia, have reported baby-care accidents in the baby incubator due to the failure of the temperature control system to maintain a stable temperature. Therefore, this study reports the design of an circuit breaker system as an over-temperature safety in a baby incubator. Experimentally, the prototype consists of hardware design, software design, and testing system design. The hardware design has four main part, sensing layer using PT1000 as a temperature sensor, data processing layer using an ESP32 microcontroller, a circuit breaker system using a solid-state relay as an electronic switching, and LCD as a display. System testing has been done by evaluating the temperature readings on a prototype against the HTC-02 digital thermometer instrument and carried out in the electromedical engineering laboratory. The results show the accuracy of the temperature parameter is 99% and the circuit breaker system is able to cut the current from the power supply to the appliance when the temperature is more than 39°C which is indicated by an incandescent lamp "off" where this is equivalent to a heater at the baby incubator is in the "off" condition. From the results of this test, it can be concluded that the circuit breaker system as a safety over temperature in the baby incubator has functioned according to the design.Recommended the development of this prototype needs to be followed up by testing on low-tech baby incubators available at basic health care facilities so as to improve technology readiness to be effective in the community.
