- Conductor Temperature and Sag Monitoring System using Zigbee and GSM : This project aims to measure and monitor the sag and temperature of high voltage overhead conductor using sensors without making any interruption to the continuous power supply. These sensed parameter values are send to the central monitoring station using Zigbee module and also to the authorized persons using GSM module.
- Implementation of Programmable Automatic Voltage Regulator: The main aim of this project is to implement Programmable Automatic Voltage Regulator (PAVR) using microcontroller. This project achieves the stabilization of output voltage with the deviation of input voltage from 100 to 340 volts.
- GSM Based Automated Embedded System for Monitoring and Controlling of Smart Grid: This project demonstrates the remote monitoring of smart grid parameters using GSM module. Electrical parameters like voltage, current, power and frequency are acquired by the data acquisition device. These real time values are periodically send to authorized persons through GSM network.
- Measurement of Air Breakdown Voltage and Electric Field using Standard Sphere Gap Method: In this project, air breakdown voltages and electric field of the high voltage equipment are measured by using sphere gap method for the measurement of high voltages.
- Calculation and Analysis of Transformer Inrush Current of Transformer: In this work, analytical formulas are implemented to calculate the inrush current in transformer. And then the effect of switching angle variation, remnant flux and energizing circuit impedances on inrush current characteristics are analyzed using MATLAB.
- Inductance Capacitance and Frequency (LCF) Meter : The main aim of this project is to implement a portable instrument to measure inductance, capacitance and frequency. This two probe device is implemented using PIC microcontroller with additional circuitry for accurately measuring and displaying these parameters.
- Circuit Breaker Based Feeder Pillar with Over current and Earth-Fault Protection : This project aims to design and simulate the 415V AC feeder pillar with earth fault, overload and over current protection using earth leakage CB, three phase overload relay and sequence relay. This design and simulation is performed on MATLAB platform.
- A Domestic Robot for Security Systems Using Zigbee Technology: This project aims to build a robotic vehicle that can enhance the security at homes.
