Abstract - Induction motors are essential to the industrial and domestic machinery and thus are crucial and used in many applications. Regulation of its operation parameters presents an important opportunity and benefits regarding convenience, efficiency and maintenance. This paper proposes a novel approach to achieve remote parameter control of an induction motor through integration with a GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) module. The system architecture involves two parts; the interfacing of a microcontroller with an induction motor lifted communication with a GSM module. The operators or users are able to observe and change them remotely very vital parameters like motor speed, voltage, current and on/off through this set up and their status shown with the help of ordinary text messages or a specific mobile app. The implementation has number of advantages, among which we can distinguish flexibility of operations, less down time and better use of resources. Also, it allows the implementation of Preventive maintenance strategies by seeing the data about the motor performance and conditions of operation. Techniques of parameter control are significant to: optimizing the induction motors performance and efficiency. More productive motor technology and energy saving will go even further with some further innovation in this field.
