ARDUINO BASED UNDERGROUND CABLE FAULT

DETECTION USING GSM TECHNOLOGY

GROUP MEMBER:
NAME ROLL NO
INTRODUCTION :
 In Power system Generation to distribution has more long cable are used
and now we used underground cable. When the underground cable is used
to distribution in the urban area, sometime fault occurs is an underground
cable that time finding fault in the underground cable is so difficult. Using
the microprocessor and GSM modem fault finding method is easily and
accurate. Proposes to use fault location model for underground power
cable using a microcontroller. The aim of the paper is to determine the
distance of underground cable fault from a substation in kilometers.
 In electrical utilities, transmission lines form the backbone of
power systems. With regard to reliability and maintenance costs of
power delivery, accurate fault location for transmission lines is of
vital importance in restoring power services and reducing outage
time as much as possible. Accurately locating faults on high voltage
transmission networks is very important for utilities to allow a quick
maintenance action of the repair crew .
