Three Phase Transmission Line Fault Detection System

The proposed Three-Phase Transmission Line Fault Detection System using Arduino Uno provides a simple, reliable, and cost-effective solution for detecting transmission line faults and estimating their location. The system identifies the faulty phase, displays the fault information on an LCD, and automatically isolates the faulty line using a relay to protect the transmission system. The integration of a fire sensor further enhances system safety by preventing damage during fire hazards. The prototype demonstrates fast fault detection, improved protection, and reliable operation, making it suitable for educational purposes and as a foundation for developing advanced transmission line protection systems.
