Transformer Health Monitoring System using GSM Technology

Abstract

In this project we are using Arduino microcontroller, Power supply, Temperature sensor, Moisture sensor, GSM and LCD. Now-a-days power requirement is huge, so we need transformers in large amount to supply power for loads. For every transformer a human source is required to monitors its level of oil and temperature. In spite of human source we are implementing a system to monitor oil level and temperature. It also gives message alert using GSM module. EXISTING SYSTEM: In the existing system we have implemented to monitor temperature and moisture .But we can predict change of parameters. So we needed an alerting system. PROPOSED SYSTEM: In the proposed system we have assembled all required sensors and modules to monitor parameters of transformer. It also alert user with message alerts. METHODOLOGY: This paper is a presentation of the design implementation of Real Time Transformer Health Monitoring System (THMS) through GSM module. Cost effectiveness and remote location will be given priority to this project. In case of software driven system total system requires lot of connection and apparatus and technically skilled personnel. Fault information will available only in control room. On the other hand, the designed system has less complexity to install and doesn't require any sort of skilled personnel and can be notified remotely. Automatic decision making is the main feature of THMS. At first all the sensors, processing controller and GSM modem initialization occurs. After the initialization process required data's are measured from sensors and some common used components
