Simulation Of Electrical Load With An Over Load System Shedding

Abstract

A break in one of the circuits in a double circuit transmission network system can cause the system to overload. Where excess load on the transmission network system can cause quite dangerous impacts. The Over Load Shedding system is a protection system for the electric power transmission network which aims to prevent widespread blackouts by removing certain predetermined loads. By using the Arduino Mega 2560 as a control center, security against load abnormalities can be carried out and can be monitored automatically using Scada, apart from that, PMT taping for load balancing can also be done using Scada. The Arduino Mega 2560 will read the current on each phase wire using the ACS712 current sensor to detect the load of one of the circuits to be aware of whether it is overloaded or not. This simulator tool has carried out several measurements and tested how to operate it. This tool has a fairly high level of work accuracy, reaching 85% success in operation. So it is hoped that this tool can provide knowledge to the wider community about over load shedding systems in maintaining the electric power transmission system properly and easily to understand.
