Transmission line Breakage Detection and Alerting System
Many times we read in newspapers that Humans &
Animals die due to
electrical shock in remote areas or in agricultural areas as
contact with broken & hanging live supply wires. Safety circuitry
of Distribution Company is inadequate and due to this line remains
live with broken wires. Here we describe a modification to
existing power distribution system for wire break detection and a
power supply breaking mechanism. Circuit breaker with shunt trip
mechanism breaks the supply and avoids damages from electrical
accidents due to overhead transmission lines conductor breakage
problems. We utilize various communication devices to provide
indication about the amount of voltages transmitted from one
section to another.
