IOT Based Analysis And Control of Electrical Parameters Of Power Distribution System
Project Area of Specialization Internet of ThingsProject SummaryRemote Monitoring, visualize and Control is one of the most important and necessary criteriafor increasing production and process plant availability. There is a lot of development in industry and the requirement for industrial monitoring system is getting higher. System should be able to acquire, save, analyze, and process real time data.Owners of industries traveling around the world need some system from where they can monitor and keep control of their industry remotely. This Project present a concept of how industrial can be monitored and controlled via IOT technology from anywhere in the world on supported portable devices. The wireless system for monitoring purpose will not only reduce the overall monitoring system cost in term of facilities setup and labor cost, but always provide flexibility in system in term of distance or location. The presented solution provides reduced software costs while improving reliability. Among the wireless technology protocols, the WIFI becomes the new standard intended for low cost devices in automation, computer peripherals and home controls. An additional monitoring approach in this system is web server based online visualization, monitoring and controlling of electrical parameters. In this system one WIFI which is called wifi coordinator (WC) is responsible to link data with PC, and other WIFI which is also called WIFI Router (WR) is connected to Arduino controller. In
this Project, monitoring electrical parameters is analyzed numerically and controlling is done using Web Portal through WIFI. The whole system is divided into two parts transmitter and receiver. In the transmitter part or collection part, a network of circuits are used to collect the data of parameters. The monitoring data is simultaneously fed to the Arduino controller. The collection data is transmitted efficiently and smoothly to receiver end through wireless WIFI module. Communication Protocols for Monitoring, Controlling and visualize remotely and in real time.
Utilization and conservation of electrical energy is one of the most important need of the day for the Industry purpose. Electric energy is the back bone of any developed country. The use of electricity is increasing day by day. When we consider an industry of large area the monitoring, controlling of each section involved in the industry is a big task. It involves large amount of man power and time consumption. This is one of the most upcoming issues in the industrial sectors. If the parameters are not monitored and controlled properly, it leads to harmful situation. Most of the industries are facing these kinds of situation because of some manual mistakes . In that kind of harmful situations, again the manual power is required to control the parameters. Sometimes, if
this control process may not be handled properly, it results in an occurrence of major accidents. So, every process in the industrial sector requires more manual power which is also having issues with the unavoidable manual mistakes. With the upcoming technologies, it is very easy to overcome the greater issues in the industrial automation. To overcome these above factors we developed this project to make single person for visualization, monitoring and controlling the entire network remotely. This can be achieved based on multiprocessor communication by the combination of IOT technology in order to fulfil the demand of the electricity for industry to make smart and efficient.

Project Implementation MethodThe prototype is implemented in two parts:
Software Implementation:
For the control and monitoring of the system, the system is interfaces with WIFI via Arduino. Monitor and control algorithms are developed in webpage and Application using Visual Studios which takes inputs from system in real time and control the system electrical parameters through
its output interface and also display these parameters on these portal. Arduino is also integrated with Wi-Fi Module (ESP 8266_esp 01) for visualization of system parameters and precise graphical computations of the load’s parameter is done which helps in forecasting and reliability assessment of the system.
Hardware Implementation:
Smart Collection, Monitoring, and controlling system is developed and interfaced with software model. Collection model consists of Arduino interfaces with measurement circuits of voltage, current, power factor, temperature, humidity, active power and speed. Controlling system consists of relay circuits along with resistive and inductive loads which are interfaced with WIFI via Arduino. Monitoring system consists of LCD, WIFI interface with Arduino.
Advantages of the Project
- New, efficient and emerging technology has been introduced and implemented on project.
- More accuracy and precision is achieved in controlling and monitoring of electrical parameters due to continuous update of data with timely monitoring and the controlling and maintaining electrical parameters in real time values at optimum level and within allowable tolerance.
- The technology used in project gives remote access to the server and controlling and monitoring of different parameters from remote area through internet.
- The technologies today implemented like PLC, SCADA which are expensive, require maintenance and are very ambiguous to operate can be replaced by this technology due to its simplicity, cheap cost and easy operation.
- The technology is mainly based on internet so there is less chances of interference in values of parameters due to their continuous upload after a certain time in the Wi-Fi cloud.
- The Wi-Fi technology used in this project takes less time to upload data than GSM and has more data transfer rate.
- Data security is more efficient.
- The modules used in project consumes less power.
- Graphical analysis of parameters like voltage, current, power factor and active power is done continuously on real time.
- Supply to the loads can be turned ON or OFF online through web portal and web application as the load on the system varies.
Project Assembling
Following steps should be followed:
In order to Power on the Arduino Mega (2560), which power on at 5V DC, first assemble the circuit of 5 Volts along with pin out terminal of 12 Volts use for other circuits. The main supply consists of transformer, rectifiers, filters and Regulators. Similarly the Voltage measurement
