Arduino Microcontroller Based Electronics Password Circuit Breaker for Distribution Side Electric Line Man Safety on Transmission Line

Abstract

The contemporary landscape necessitates the amalgamation of automation technology into various domains, particularly in enhancing safety measures. Human accidents, especially in industrial settings, have surged, warranting innovative solutions to mitigate risks and ensure worker safety. Addressing this urgency, our project centers on the integration of embedded system design, fusing mechanical and computer systems, to fortify safety protocols in electrical circuit operations. Our focus revolves around developing a system aimed at reducing and potentially eliminating accidents by implementing an OTP-based control mechanism for circuit breakers (CB). Leveraging Arduino technology, the system is devised to administer an OTP to the user for CB operation. The maintenance staff is required to input the OTP via a keypad to gain access to the circuit breaker, ensuring secure and controlled access. This project endeavors to revolutionize safety protocols in electrical operations by infusing advanced technology, thus instilling a proactive approach in preventing mishaps and safeguarding the well-being of workers in industrial settings. The innovative integration of OTP-based control aligns with the imperative of ensuring safer and more secure electrical operations, contributing to a paradigm shift in workplace safety standards.
