Design and Implementation of Power Earth line Monitoring System

The power earth-line monitoring system is a system that uses GSM communications

technology to collect record and display the physical parameters of earth lines when the power

lines are under construction and maintenance. The system is used to provide the help for

production management and on-site operator. The large construction of power lines often have

many measurement and control objects which are each separated by a certain distance but require

a unified management and scheduling. In particular widely distributed and adverse environment,

how to effectively collect and transmit data and then control and manage the whole procedure to

ensure construction safety has a very important significance.

Existing System:

Manual inspection of earth line is undergone in current system. Fault identification is

difficult and it requires more time for fault identification. Due to these disadvantages we go for

proposed system.

Proposed System:

When the intelligent earth monitor detects that the single phase power lines and the single

phase earth-line are connected, it shows earth state. When the single phase power lines and single

phase earth-line are detected to be disconnected, it shows off state. Here, 89C51 displays the

status in the LCD. The voltage sensor is given to the ADC0808 IC the output will be given to the

microcontroller. According to the output of the voltage sensor the status will be displayed in

LCD.
