Online Remote Smart Grid Lab

Getting access to remote facilities anywhere is a new way for teaching and learning, new technology that can help to achieve many goals in the research field. It stands up against the impossibly to access labs over the world. A practical approach for limited budget research institutions to provide cost effective research facilities, online remote lab is a new technology in learning arena, it can be said that it is the first step in developing the research labs to become accessible worldwide, this research illustrates how to make labs remotely accessible for students and researchers even in the developed countries. Through the internet, it became easy for researches to access the needed facilities for their research. This research works on converting smart grid labs by using Raspberry Pi B+ 3 board to become online labs that can operates from any location, by using JSON programming language and an online website to connect the modules with each other for the chosen experiment, and then observe the result in SCADA, by this way any student at any time can use the lab to implement their experiments and obtaining the results.
