IoT Based Three Phase Power Failure Monitoring with Alert System
Abstract
The goal of this effort is to use IoT-based smart sensing to monitor and safeguard a three-phase electrical distribution system. Voltage sensors are used to continuously measure the line's three-phase voltage, which the Arduino UNO then processes to identify variations like overvoltage. The Arduino controls the relay module to automatically separate the load in order to protect the appliances that are connected to the distribution poles based on these observed conditions. The prototype uses a lamp to show relay response and load behaviour. IoT monitoring and capacitor health monitoring are two applications for the ESP8266. In order to comprehend the state of the reactive compensation section, it examines and evaluates the charging and discharging behaviour of capacitors rather than controlling the capacitor bank. Additionally, real-time information are simultaneously updated to a web dashboard for remote monitoring and shown locally on an OLED display. Alert alerts are created for prompt action if any unusual behaviour or dangerous voltage conditions are found. Reliability is increased, preventive maintenance is supported, distribution failures are decreased, and sophisticated smart grid monitoring with IoT-based real-time visibility and alert systems is made possible.
