After developing a few Raspberry Pi webservers I decided to create one that would allow control of AC outlets in the house via local WiFi. It runs headless Rasbian with only configuration files and no database requirements. The build was done using a Raspberry Pi, solid state relays (current limited compared to electromechanical), and an AC Wall Outlet Box with room for outlets and wiring. I decided to use solid state relays to control the low power devices/lights and if necessary, electromechanical relays would be required to control higher wattage computers or appliances. In the end I created a few versions of these boxes but stuck to a similar format with the Pi secured to the side and outlets labeled for max wattages. After deploying three panels, the ability to manage two other control panels from each was added, allowing three panels (10+ outlets) to be controlled from one web interface.
To be clear, there are no surge or fuse capabilities built in but all wires inside can support the maximum amperage for the input line and the only items lacking in wattage capability are the relays.
