I am working on home automation project in which 6 AC(230V) appliances can be controlled via mobile.
i can easily turn on or off any switch using mobile, but some time randomly any appliance has been flashing in its off state.

i am using MOC3021 to drive the Triac BT136-600E(it is Sensitive gate,do not get non sensitive in my city),also using snubber circuit (C=0.01uF 400v, R=560 ohm).

i tried to increase noise immunity using 100ohm resistor between MT2 and Gate terminal of triac but did not work.

Following is the schematic of my circuit.

Code:
MOC3021----(570ohm)----(570ohm)-----------P
    l                             l                  l        l
    l                             l                  l        l
    l                     (0.01uF,400v)   (BT136)   l
    l                             l               /  l        l
    l                             l             /    l   Snubber
    ---------------------)---------     l        l
                                  l                  l        l
                                  l                  l        l
                                  ----------------------N

So now what can i do to get rid of this problem..?

i think there is a problem in display of circuit so if any one required circuit to solve the problem than let me know.
