Abstract
This paper presents the online monitoring of circuit breakers used in the transmission and distribution of power system, to connect and disconnect the power flow at the generator, substation, or load location. The circuit Breakers are capable of making, carrying, and breaking currents under normal circuit conditions. The objective of this paper is to investigate feasibility, specify requirement and propose the implementation architecture of an automated circuit breaker monitoring device that enables continuous and reliable system monitoring. It is very essential to implement an online system for efficient circuit breaker monitoring because of many infrequent cases. To improve reliability of the power system through various analysis functions it is necessary to know power system topology configuration. Real time and on-line monitoring seems to be perfect solution for circuit breaker conditions and status monitoring. SCADA is a system used for this purpose. This system monitors status of CB mechanical contacts and transfers it in real time to a central place.
