GSM BASED MONITORING AND CONTROLLING OF WIRING SYSTEM

GSM BASED MONITORING AND CONTROLLING OF WIRING SYSTEM

Abstract:

The aimed objective of this project is to design a microcontroller based protection of wiring system. The protection includes temperature of the conductors and the limitations of current. In this project all the information about the current and temperature will be sent to the main unit by using user cell phone. The user has the capability to control the system, but if the user didn’t response to the alerts then system selects the automatic mode, and takes the safety precautions. This will turn of the main switch for the sake of better protection.

Aim of The Project

The main core of this project is to design such a system which protects the wiring system automatically. The second objective of the project is to control and monitor the limitation of current and temperature, where user will a be informed by using GSM module.

Introduction: 

Electrical wiring in general refers to insulated conductors used to carry electricity, and associated devices. This article describes general aspects of electrical wiring as used to provide power in buildings and structures, commonly referred to as building wiring. This article is intended to describe common features of electrical wiring that may apply worldwide. For information regarding specific national electrical codes, refer to the articles mentioned in the next section. Separate articles cover long-distance electric power transmission and electric power distribution.

With the evolution and proliferation of electrical systems usage throughout all of today’s cutting edge business sectors and industries, the need to protect these applications has never been more important, and it’s a tidal wave of progress that shows no sign of abating. More and more, functions and processes throughout a diverse range of industries are reliant on sophisticated and sensitive electronics and electrical communications, whether it be on (or under) land, on (and below) the sea, up in the air, or even high above the earth.

One such area this applies to, is the Marine sector. Like all modes of transportation, nautical vessel technology has not just evolved but been revolutionized through the advent and subsequent advances in electronics and electrical engineering. Our ancestors – even from as recently as the nineteenth century – would be dumbstruck by the revolution that has taken place.

Problem Statement:

Controlling the temperature and current limit.

Sending all the information to the user on cell phone for the sake of controlling purpose.

Displaying all the information on LCD.

Methodology:

The best solution to tackle these problems is by using GSM Based Monitoring And Controlling Of Wiring System Because this scheme have the ability to control and monitor the wiring system remotely. 

For measuring the current we will use C.T (current transformer), which is interfaced with ADC, the ADC convert the analog signal to digital and transfer it to the microcontroller, microcontroller also measure the temperature through thermistor, here the controller sends all the data to user cell phone and main unit by using GSM module for the sake of monitoring. Here controller display the results on LCD and after some time it starts to give buzzer. Where on the user cell phone this information will be send through SMS (short message service). User can control the load remotely by replying on the same number. The GSM receive the signal and transfer it to the controller, which turn off the load through relay, the relay will be connected with relay drive unit which control the relay.

So the methodology we are using is quite simple and reliable and it needs the following components.

Voltage regulator

LED

Diodes

Transformer

Bridge

temperature sensor

GSM module

Microcontroller

Op-amp

Buzzer

Relay driver

Relay

ADC

LCD
