Iot based control of electrical appliances with enabled fault detection system

Idea Description

The large companies , manufactories and Houses are facing problems related to electrical network especially the distribution board. To identify the faults in current distributed generation has made traditional distribution protection schemes mostly ineffective. The employees can’t analysis and knowledge the reasons of fault. also, due to overload and short circuit the main breaker of DB off, so it takes time to know where the fault is. 

To overcome the problem, we will design an IOT distribution board which will help to identify and show the values of current in each breaker. The DB will be more technology and smart.the Arduino interface with IoT system and distribution board. when the fault occurs in load the CS will sense and disconnect the load so, the ARDUINO will read status of the current and identify the concern breaker. The LCD will show the rating of each breaker and which breaker increase, decrease and it  will show the total current. by this information the employees will know the reasons for fault.

 In this project we will use many components like Arduino to compare information and send, relay driver to operate the loads, load like appliances, current senser to sense the current, LCD display to show the data and finally we use Iot. The method will be like that Connect the relay driver to the Arduino, and the Arduino will transmit signals to the relay, causing the load to activate. The current senser will then sense the amount of current flowing through the loads and provide the value and data to the Arduino. The Arduino will compare the values and determine the status of the loads, after which it will communicate all data and the type of faults that have happened to the LCD, as well as to the Wi-Fi module to send information to the IoT.

To be more flexible and fix the problem easier and in short time will share all these information to the phone by wifi module. the DHT is used to sense the temperature of DB , when it is high, will manage and show in LCD. by this task the working will be easily and faster to fix the faults in electrical network.

Challenges The Idea is Addressing

. the limitations is when the network bad and it difficult to control by IoT and when series fault occur in circuit the current will be zero ,so it not detected ,so the circuit not work .

Benefits of Idea Implementation

The distribution board use IoT to control and analysis the fault that occur breakers and lead switch off the electrical . in this project ,it will using to control all breaker know the type for fault . the advantage of the project is fixing and control the loads by IoT
