Aim
• The aim of the project is to protect the transformer under overload
condition by load sharing.
• Due to overload on transformer, the efficiency drops and windings get
overheated and may get burnt.
• Thus by sharing load on transformer, the transformer is protected.
Problem Statement
• Increased efficiency
3 Arduino 5 volts
5 Transformer 12-0-12
6 Voltage Regulator -
7 Potentiometer 10kΩ
Working
1. Relay Kit:- The Arduino controls a relay kit to switch transformers on or
off, ensuring balanced load distribution by activating or deactivating
transformers based on their current load.
2. Rectifier Circuit kit:- It is use to convert AC to DC power for the control
system. This ensures the Arduino and associated components receive stable
voltage for reliable operation.
3.Arduino:- An Arduino can be used in an automatic load-sharing transformer
project by measuring the current load on each transformer using current
sensors, and then controlling relays or switches to balance the load across the
transformers. The Arduino processes sensor data to decide which transformers
should be active to optimize load distribution and prevent overload.
4.LCD Display:- The Arduino reads current values from transformers and
shows them on an LCD display. This lets you easily see how much load each
transformer is carrying, helping to balance the load automatically.
5. Transformer:- In the project, transformers provide the necessary voltage
and current to the load. The Arduino monitors and controls the load
distribution by switching transformers on or off to balance the load
effectively.
6. Voltage Regulator:- Voltage regulator to stabilize and distribute power
across multiple transformers. The Arduino monitors voltage levels and
adjusts the load sharing to ensure consistent and reliable power delivery.
7. Potentiometer:- The potentiometer allows manual adjustment of load
threshold settings in the Arduino project, enabling fine-tuning of when
transformers switch on or off to achieve optimal load sharing.
Advantages
• Efficient load distribution.
• Reduce maintenance cost.
• Cost effective.
• Customizable.
• Easy to understand.
Disadvantages
• Data centers.
• Residential areas.
• Commercial buildings.
Expected Result
• The controller compare the load on the first transformer with the
reference value.
• When the load exceeds the reference value, the second transformer will
share the remaining load.
• This will be done by connecting another transformer in parallel through
the Arduino
Future Scope
• Machine learning for optimized load sharing.
