Abstract:
The GSM-Based Earth Fault and Overload Protection System utilizes an Arduino microcontroller, along with voltage, current, and temperature sensors, to monitor and protect electrical circuits from common faults and hazardous conditions. The system continuously measures voltage levels, current flow, and temperature. In the event of an earth fault, current overload, or abnormal temperature rise, the system immediately triggers an alarm and disconnects the power supply to prevent equipment damage and safety hazards. Using a GSM module, real-time notifications are sent via SMS to theuser or operator, ensuring prompt awareness and action. This solution offers an efficient and cost-effective method for enhancing the safety and reliability of electrical installations, particularly in remote areas where manual monitoring is difficult.
