What? You have a wall outlet to power the mill. There is obviously power
in the wall output. The switch uses just a few milliwatts.
This does work. I've got several of these little switches. Of course the

Thanks for all the ideas.
I don’t think a WiFi solution will work because I want to completely power down
the system. There’s not too much power, as I would only need to switch the
control power; all the high power circuits need only be switched through their
respective relays.

Sweet, the perfect companion to my idea.

Those 'smart sockets' can be really handy. I use one to control the
startup of my 3 phase rotary converter. That way I can be in the shop
and only have the converter running when I need 3 phase. In the house is

How much power does your system use? If it can be powered from a normal
120 volt AC then you can buy a "Smart Outlet" that switches the 120V by
WiFi, cost about $10 or $15. The Pi then can turn off or on any AC mains
powered device. They sell these on Amazon or at Home Depot. You can

On a small cnc machine run by a raspberry pi, I’d like to set up the main power
to accomplish the following:
1)pressing the power button/flipping the switch turns on the machine
2) pressing the off button, the pi should first perform a shutdown then turn
off the main power to all control power
