Abstract: The masters qualification work is presented by a calculation-explanatory note on the pages of typewritten text, containing 13 tables, 32 figures and 14 references. The paper presents a system of automatic lighting control, implemented in the form of a training stand "Smart lighting of the corridors of the 5th educational building" with elements of self-control. The use of such a control system can reduce electricity consumption by 50-60%. The paper proposes the modernization of the system in the part related to the monitoring of the parameters of the power circuit of the lighting system, such as branch currents and node voltages. In particular, the set of measuring devices (ammeters, voltmeters) is proposed to be replaced by a single mDAQ chip containing a built-in analog-to-digital converter to convert the received signals into a form suitable for processing by computer technology. The paper implements two options for building such a monitoring system - based on a Raspberry Pi minicomputer and an Arduino microcontroller.
