Abstract : We use low-voltage AC distribution conductors a lot in power systems because they are cheap and easy to install. These low-voltage AC distribution conductors can break easily because of ambient condition, age factor and due to object falling. When a low-voltage AC distribution conductor breaks it can cause the power to go out be a safety hazard, start fires and damage equipment. In power systems, it takes a long time to find the problem because we have to wait for someone to check it manually or for people to complain. This makes it take longer to fix and makes the electrical power system less reliable. This project is about making a system to find breaks in low-voltage AC distribution conductors. In our project we check the voltage, current all the time to see if something is wrong with the low-voltage AC distribution conductor. If it finds a break it sends an alert so we can fix the low-voltage AC distribution conductor fast. We want this system to be cheap ,work well and be good for real-world use in low-voltage AC distribution systems. Our system is meant to make electrical power safer, reduce the time of power outage and makes the electrical power system work better. This project shows that we can use methods to find breaks in low-voltage AC distribution conductors in time. This means it could be used in the future and in smart power systems. Low-voltage AC overhead distribution conductors will be safer with our system.
