Transformer Monitoring and Security System using IoT

One of the essential parts of electrical hardware utilized in the operation of an energy system is a transformer. Transformers are monitored regularly to prevent issues that are prohibitively expensive to repair and that may result in the loss of electricity. With the distribution transformer, serving as an example of a load current, temperature, and oil level indicator, the primary objective of this article is to use the Internet of Things (IoT) to monitor and uncover errors in the distribution networks in real time. This is a unified system that keeps track of different characteristics that have an immediate bearing on the transformer. The three main challenges that contribute to the distribution transformer failure are overloading, oil temperature load current, and inadequate transformer cooling. It is challenging to manually assess the status of every transformer in the current electric networks due to the widespread distribution of the transformers. Different types of sensors are utilized in order to keep track of the temperature, oil level, current, and voltage. The microprocessor acts in response to the interpretations provided by the sensor in order to maintain a consistent working environment for the transformer. The system that has been suggested has a cheap price point, is simple to operate, and can inspect and show data using IoT.
