3. ADVANTAGES
Remote monitoring to avoid further power loss and time.
Whole system can be shut down for quick repairs and re-installations.
Low maintenance .
Fair efficiency.
High accuracy.
5. FUTURE SCOPE & PLAN
This project can be implemented by using GPRS technology so that
captured data can be send anywhere in the world.
We can turn it to a “Smart Energy Meter” by which electricity parameters
along with cost calculation can be monitored by the user by GSM or GPRS
so they can minimize their electricity uses to optimum level.
6. CONCLUSION
In this project we have presented a design of a system based on AVR microcontroller
that is used to monitor and control the voltage, current and temperature of a
distribution transformer by shutting it down.
This claims that the proposed design of the system makes the distribution
transformer more robust against some key power quality issues which makes the
voltage, current or temperature to peak. Hence the distribution is made more secure,
reliable and efficient by means of the proposed system.
