Abstract


Underground cables are commonly spread for more than overhead wires in industrial settings. Place of the fault in the underground cable (UG) is time-consuming because there is a possibility of destroying the insulation when digging the cable. The suggested method provides fast and clever prediction of faults by automating it using the ARDUINO module. The core principle of Ohm's rule is implemented at the end of the feeder by utilizing the resistance array. In the case of a short-circuit cable, the current flow in the defective parts can differ based on the duration of the track. The purpose of this paper is to approximate the direction of the fault gap and to acquaint the staff via the LCD monitor on board.

Keywords: Electrical cable, Resistance, Current, Switches, Physical Damage.
