Introduction
Energy leakage is one of the major problems that the corporation faces in
recent times. Bringing this leakage under control is next to impossible with
the electrical transmission lines running millions of miles across the country.
Only way to solve this problem is to come up with a mechanism that can
detect the fault in electricity transmission line automatically and intimate the
authorities with a specific location. Through this project you will develop a
device that uses sensors to sense the incoming & outgoing values and detect
anomalies. And, the system will be integrated with the Bluetooth mechanism,
to intimate the responsible people real time with the location information and
sensor, buzzer, LCD and tower. The project representing cable length in KMs
check the accuracy of the same. The voltage drop across the feeder resistor is
given to an ADC which develops a precise digital data which the programmed
microcontroller would display the same in Kilo meters. The fault occurring at
what distance and which phase is displayed on a 16X2 LCD interfaced with the
distance will show on Lcd ant load cutoff automatically from the lines and a
1. Line to line and ground fault detection using low voltage cables. The
three phase lines. To analyze the fault, here we use a small circuitry
called post unit which is mounted on various points in the line. When
there is short circuit between R-Y, Y-B phases then ADC get more than
zero analog value at channel AD6 & AD7 where relay is in NO condition
and load is stop running. The main unit also consists of set of sensors
that give the status of line at that point and it accepts the information
power provider about the fault including its type and location if it finds
the line faulty and cutoffs the loads automatically from the lines and a
current. The CT voltage varies with load current. That output got
