Abstract
The control of synchronous machines is now moving almost completely from analogue electronic to digital. Therefore the very first reason which motivated us toward this project is that we wanted some digital control (Microcontroller Based) for monitoring different parameters of Synchronous Generator. Thus it is necessary to develop a digital circuit for the monitoring of a power system. In this project Generator parameters like Generator Voltage, Generator load Current, Temperature of windings of generator and Frequency of system are sensed by Potential Transformer, Current tansformer, Temperature sensor (LM35) and internal interrupt of micro controller respectively . Then these parameters are monitored by applying limitations and using LED’s to show system status and LCD is used for the Digital Display. After this the parameters are sent to computer for serial port interfacing. At the end the data is uploaded on webpage through data base.
