GSM BASED AUTOMATIC TRIP CONTROL SYSTEM FOR ENERGY MANAGEMENT

Abstract

This paper presents the development of Automatic Trip Control System for Energy Management using GSM. The proposed system monitors the usage level of electricity of every consumer at all the time. During excess of electrical energy used by consumer, the system will give the alerts through an alarm circuit. After the alarm circuit, the consumer has to take an alternative solution to cut-off excess supply from the Electricity Board (EB) to stop alarming. Otherwise, the circuit breaker will come into OFF position and the supply will be tripping-off coming from EB. The information about the particular consumer will be sent to EB through GSM (Global System for Mobile Communication Network).Then, the consumer has to give the requisition to EB for making the circuit breaker coming into normal with the help of PIC microcontroller, which is programmed to monitor the parameters of electrical energy. This system helps for illegal usage of electricity, monitoring the energy, maintaining data on tariff etc. The implementation and demonstration of the system were made.
