In search of proposals that comply with the regulations related to the Rational and Efficient Use of Energy (URE), the development of a telemanagement prototype based on the Internet of Things (IoT) is proposed for the supervision, monitoring, control and recording of electrical consumption of devices connected to 120/240 V 15/20 A outlets in Low Voltage General Use (LV-UG) installations in Colombia. This document shows the results obtained in the design stage of the remote management system prototype, which includes smart outlets for telemetry of electrical consumption and remote control of electrical appliances, a perimeter access point for the management of smart outlets, a network router for managing communication networks, Graphical User Interfaces (GUI) for user interaction with the system, a history log for statistical analysis of user consumption behavior, and Cloud for access to the telemanagement system from any geographical location. In the future, it is expected that the prototype developed will establish a scientific and technological base, and experimental evidence for the development of a commercial product with a view to increasing the efficiency of the URE.
