Grey and Teal Modern Simple Research Project Presentation

The project titled 'Under Ground Cable Fault Distance Identifier' focuses on accurately locating faults in underground cable power transmission systems using a microcontroller. It employs a set of resistors and switches to simulate faults and displays the fault location on an LCD. The project successfully demonstrates the detection of both short circuit and open circuit faults, utilizing principles of Ohm's law and impedance measurement.

ABSTRACT

Underground cable power transmission and distribution system are susceptible


to faults. Accurate fault location for transmission lines is of vital importance. A
quick detection and analysis of faults is necessity of power retailers and
distributors. This project presents an idea of fault locating method with highly
computational method. The project also presents some guidelines for design of
fault location and remote indication, for reducing power outages and reducing
heavy loss of revenue.
The project is assembled with a set of resistors representing cable length in
meters and fault creation is made by a set of switches at every known distance in
meters to cross check the accuracy of the same. The fault occurring at a
particular distance and the respective phase is displayed on a LCD interfaced to
the microcontroller.

CONCLUSION

The project work Titled “Under Ground Cable Fault Distance Identifier” is successfully
designed & developed, and a demo unit is fabricated and the results are found to be
satisfactory. In this project we detect the exact location of short circuit fault in the
underground cable from feeder end in meters or km by using microcontroller. For this we
use simple concept of OHM’s law so fault can be easily detected and repaired. In this
project we detect only the location of short circuit fault in underground cable line, but we
also detect the location of open circuit fault, to detect Theoretical
the open circuit fault capacitor is
used in ac circuit which measure the change in impedance & calculate the distance of the
fault.
