Connections & User Interfaces

The IPEC, IoT Power Energy Controller board, has been designed to be flexible and whilst providing Energy Monitoring functionality, it also has other options for experimenting.

Connections have been designed to be straight forward, whilst allowing the board to neatly fit inside an enclosure - if required.
