Power travels from the power plant to house through an amazing system called the
power distribution grid. For power to be useful in a home or business, it comes off
the transmission grid and is stepped-down to the distribution grid. This may happen
in several phases. The place where the conversion from "transmission" to
"distribution" occurs is in a power substation. It has transformers that step
transmission voltages (in the tens or hundreds of thousands of volts range) down to
distribution voltages (typically less than 10,000 volts). It has a "bus" that can split the
distribution power off in multiple directions. It often has circuit breakers and
switches so that the substation can be disconnected from the transmission grid or
separate distribution lines can be disconnected from the substation when necessary.
In this project, a slave transformer in the case of shares the load of master
transformer over load and over temperature. A sensor circuit is designed to log the
data from the master transformer and if it is found to be in over load condition,
immediately the slave transformer will be connected in parallel to the master
transformer and the load is shared.
LM324 operational amplifier is used to compare the load of the transformer with a
standard load capacity. An NPN transistor is used to drive the relay.
This project uses regulated 5V, 750mA power supply. 7805 three terminal voltage
regulator is used for voltage regulation. Bridge type full wave rectifier is used to
rectify the ac out put of secondary of 230/12V step down transformer.
