Abstract: the Smart Underground Cable Fault Detector is an innovative solution designed for the rapid and precise identification of issues in buried power lines. While subterranean cables offer superior safety and aesthetic advantages, they are vulnerable to faults like short circuits or insulation failure caused by aging and moisture. Traditional troubleshooting is often laborintensive and expensive.
This system leverages an Arduino Uno and the voltage drop principle to pinpoint fault locations. By using an onboard ADC to process signals and an ESP8266 for wireless connectivity, the device provides real-time updates and distance calculations via an LCD. This automation significantly reduces the need for manual inspection and disruptive excavation, making it ideal for smart city infrastructure and industrial power grids."
