Motivation Behind The
Project
 Maintenance problem in distribution side during the fault
situations.
 Delay in detecting and locating the faults, results in power
consumption.
 Uneven electric power line distribution.
 Increased numbers of power theft.
Objectives

 To detect the fault in power distribution network using Global

Systems for Mobile (GSM) technique.
 To analyze the bypass module with faulty feeder.
 Analysis of the power distribution network for the power theft
and the voltage fluctuation using GSM.
 To make troubleshooting faster in the distribution network of
power line for increased efficiency.

Hardware Components
 ARDUINO UNO
 Light Emitting Diodes
 Global Systems for Mobile SIM 800
 Liquid Crystal Display 16X2
 Relays And their Drivers
 Transformers
 Current and Gas Sensors
 Microcontroller
 Type of board.
 Clock frequency and faster.
 Section, no of pins and peripheral
 Pin information
 Technical specification

 Relays
 Function.
 Type of relay
 Relay rating.
 Relay Driver
 Need of relay driver.
 Type of relay driver.
 Features.
 CURRENT SENSOR (ACS712)
 Usage
 DC voltage is than given to ADC inside micro-controller which calculates the exact
current flowing through the line.
 Depending upon the ADC value the micro-controller finds the current in transmission
line.
 Features.

 GSM Modem
 Communication.
 Data.
 usage.
 Characterisics.

 LCD Screen
 A 16 x 2 LCD screen is used to display the warning message and other text messages. 16
x 2 in the LCD screen indicates that the LCD screen has 2 arrays of line and each array
can hold up to 16 characters.
Design of implementation

1.During normal condition

2.During Single joint fault
3.During series joint fault
HARDWARE SETUP

Software Required

 Compiler: ARDUINO IDE

 
 Language: Embedded C
Advantages

 We can detect the voltage fluctuation easily.

 Module detects the power theft condition precisely.
 Cost of data transmission is reduced.
 Trouble shooting in the line will be faster.
 Efficiency is increased.
Future scope

 GPS Modem
 Theft limit
 Wireless
 We can also detect other faults which occur in the same
line
