INTRODUCTION

► Through this project we can acquire the real time monitoring of the
health conditions of distribution transformer using IOT technology .

► The system is designed to measure the physical parameters of a

transformer are monitored, processed and recorded in servers.For this
Purpose, we use three sensors interfaced with Arduino.

► The recorded data can be send using Wi-Fi module and accessed
from anywhere around the world using IOT technology. This helps
in identifying without human dependency.

Function of Block Diagram

► Temperature sensor is used to sense the temperature status

of a transformer in degree celsius .It does not tend to
possess a temperature rise more than 0.1*C in still air.
► Similarly, other sensors are used sense the physical
parameters of transformer .These processed sensor output
are then send to the main server or cloud with the help of
arduino and nodemcu.

► The arduino and Node MCU exchange data through serial

communication. The Node MCU will be treated as master and
arduino act as slave during this communication. Arduino acts
according to the instructions given by Node MCU
► After data obtained from arduino, the nodemcu is
communicates with thingspeak and real time data is
processed by it. This data send by using HTTP
protocol .

► Thingspeak is a open – source internet of things

applications .This provides with some apps that let
analysing and visualising the data send by WiFi
module.

► It consists channel that provide provision for sending,

processing and accessing the data when needed.
Components used in proposed system

Voltage sensor circuit

Advantages
► Device can be monitored from any location.
► It designed to emit a reduced size and maximum efficiency.
► Real time monitoring.
► Generate less heat.
► Increase system reliability and stability by monitoring System.

Disadvantage
► Mainly depends on signal strength.
► Security and privacy remain a major concern deterring users from using IoT
technology.
► Failure or bugs in the hardware can impact Performance of sensors.
Applications
► This system can be implemented in substations to monitoring
and controlling of a various transformers which are located at
different area .

► From this system we can use to monitoring all distribution

transformers under substation automatically.

► This system is Preffered in smart grid

► This system can be expanded up to 3-phase transformer, which

will display more accurate health indices.
