NEXT GENERATION SMART SUBSTATION THROUGH GSM

TECHNOLOGY

ABSTRACT

Transformers are basic design of electrical device which provide power

transmission by transforming induced current from one circuit to another in
substation. The induced current can be converted step up or step down of current
or voltage. This application mainly concentrates on the three-phase circuit breaker
which are used in between electric poles and the Power transformers. The real
time controlling is done on the basic features like gas level, oil aging and
regulation of overload and temperature maintenance. These features are essential
for effective power transmission and long life of substation transformers if any
problem controlling circuit breaks. In this project, proposed to monitoring and
control of the substation through GSM technology. This system is fully utilizing
the embedded system as well as wireless communication protocol to safeguard the
whole power system network from the serious accident.

 BLOCK DESCRIPTION

In our proposed system, we are using an ATMEGA328 microcontroller

which is interface with IR sensor and GSM module where IR sensor is used for
monitoring if any worker is at the sub transformer. If it senses any movement then
the GSM module is used for send message to the office. The microcontroller is also
connected with the Driver IC and it is connected to the loads through relays. The
relay acts link switches the current transformer is used to measure the current to
load. If over current passed in transmission line or short circuit fault is detected,
the controller to trip the power line. The V-I attenuator are used for measuring the
gain values of the PT and CT. The output of the attenuator is given to the
embedded controller. The LCD is used for viewing the reading and status of the
controller unit. A power supply unit is used for giving power supply to the
proposed system.
ADVANTAGES

1) Wireless Monitoring System.

2) Faster Control Action.
3) Automatic Control Action.
4) Accurate System.

APPLICATIONS

1) In industries to monitor different modules located at different places.

2) Distribution Points (DP) where the huge amount of power distribution
takes place.
3) Monitoring and controlling the home appliances.
