Abstract

Abstract It is very difficult to find the exact location of cable fault in underground cables; generally, these problems occur in metropolitan cities. A large amount of money is invested in digging the earth. This problem leads to design this project to find out the exact location of the error occurs in the underground cables from the side of the feeder and liquid crystal display show the distance in kilometer and also tells us about the place where it occurs. This paper discuss about this novel design. This novel design is less complex as compare to the latest technology, i.e., Murray loop technology, it also consume less power generally in nano watts, its maintenance cost is very low. This novel design also has higher efficiency. It is also easy to handle and compact in size. It has a new technology in which a GSM (global system for mobile communication) is also included for getting the message on your mobile to the lineman. Lineman get this message at base station easily. The series resistor voltage changes according to them which is going in form of analog input in programmed microcontroller which display the same in kilometer here we also used GPS system to give the message to operator phone with exact distance. The paper also focuses on its applications. This project finds its application in industrial application, ground cable fault detection. It is a low cost device with very less complexity. Keywords: GSM, GPS, fault link, mugger, congested Cite this Article Amit Kumar, Kamlesh Kumar Singh. A Novel Approach to Design Underground Fault Locator in Power Cable.
