TAMPERING DETECTION OF TRANSMISSION LINES

AIM:

The aim of our project is to detect the tamper condition of transmission lines and
also we are finding the location name and substation name. This fault will be detected
by comparing the two current transformers output by using microcontroller. If the
difference exits between the CT’s output then microcontroller will send as message via
the GSM modem.

OBJECTIVE:
Today energy theft is a worldwide problem that contributes heavily to
revenue losses. Transmission Lines can be tampered using various ways like Partial
Earth Fault Condition. Swapping phase and neutral, Disconnection of neutral Attaching
loads the between the sub stations. This Project Detects the Transmission Lines
Tampering to the load by using tamper Circuit that can done by using two current
transformers outputs which is connected in the corresponding substations. It also alerts
the Electricity Board regarding the tampering using a GSM Modem. This GSM message
Contains the information about the substation name and location.
