The paper presents a prototype setup for detecting and tracking transmission line faults using Internet of Things (IoT) technology. This system automatically detects, analyzes and classifies the transmission line faults, while also tracking the location of fault. The setup uses a combination of ESP32, display, potential transformers, current transformers and GSM module to sense, process and transmit data. The instrument transformers accurately sense data and send to ESP32. Comparing with reference value, it analyzes fault and sends information via GSM module to a designated number and server. This prototype ensures fast processing of data and detects faults accurately in different scenarios.
Electric power infrastructure is extremely sensitive to several hostile physical events that could negatively impact the grid’s performance and stability (Suresh et al., 2017).
