Abstract

The reliability of power distribution systems is a crucial factor in ensuring stable electricity supply for industrial, commercial, and household users. Conventional protection systems often face limitations in terms of real-time monitoring, remote control, and adaptive responses to fault conditions, which can result in longer outage durations and higher operational costs. This research aims to develop a smart protection system for power distribution using Internet of Things (IoT) technology to enhance system reliability. The proposed method integrates IoT-enabled sensors, microcontrollers, and communication modules to monitor critical parameters such as voltage, current, and frequency in real time. Data are transmitted to a cloud-based platform for analysis and decision-making, enabling rapid detection of abnormalities and remote tripping of circuit breakers. The prototype was tested under various fault scenarios, including short circuits and overloads, and demonstrated faster response times compared to conventional systems. Results show that the IoT-based protection system improved fault detection accuracy, reduced downtime, and provided predictive maintenance insights through data analytics. The synthesis of these findings highlights that integrating IoT into protection mechanisms not only increases operational reliability but also supports the transition toward smart grids. In conclusion, the developed system proves effective in addressing the limitations of traditional protection systems by offering real-time monitoring, automation, and enhanced decision-making for modern power distribution networks.

Abstract

Power transformers are crucial in the electrical distribution system, and their operational stability is significantly affected by load imbalance among phases. Load imbalance can lead to the flow of neutral current through the neutral conductor, causing additional power losses in the transformer. This study analyzes the impact of load imbalance on neutral current and power losses at Transformer 1 (30 MVA capacity, 70/20 kV) at the Bungaran Substation. Data such as phase current, neutral current, and power losses were measured at 12:00 and 21:00. At 12:00, the transformer’s full-load current was 839.17 A with a loading of 28.44% and a load imbalance of 0.74%, resulting in a neutral current of 4.36 A (1.83% of load current). The power loss due to neutral current was 12.64 W (4.36×10-5 %), and the loss due to neutral current flowing to the ground was 760 W (2.62×10-3 %). At 21:00, the full-load current decreased to 834.46 A, with a loading of 29.36% and a higher load imbalance of 1.36%. This caused a neutral current of 7.94 A (3.24%), with a power loss of 41.90 W (1.43×10-4 %) and a ground power loss of 2.52 W (8.60×10-3 %). The power losses were minimal compared to the transformer’s capacity, having little effect on system efficiency. However, maintaining load balance is essential for system efficiency and transformer longevity.
