MUMBAI, India, Oct. 26 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611106962 A) filed by Chandigarh University on September 05, 2026, for Ai-Iot Enabled Animal-Safe Leakage And Earthing Health Safety System For Electrical Transformers.
Inventors include Nivedita Sharma; Jatinder Kaur; and Harish Nagar.
The application for the patent was published on October 23, 2026, under issue no. 43/2026.
Abstract: The present invention provides an AI-IoT enabled animal-safe leakage and earthing health safety system (100) for an electrical transformer (101). The system comprises a leakage current sensor (102), an earthing health monitor (103), animal proximity sensor (104), human presence sensor (105), controller unit (106), isolation mechanism (107), local alert unit (108) and communication module (109). The controller unit (106) continuously processes leakage-current, earthing-resistance and proximity information and evaluates the information against safety criteria. AI/ML-based analysis of historical readings identifies earthing degradation trends and potential failure conditions. Upon detection of an unsafe condition, the system provides local warnings and, upon animal detection, activates an animal deterrent response. Persistence of a hazardous condition causes automatic transformer isolation through the isolation mechanism (107). Fault information is transmitted through IoT/GSM communication to a remote utility system. Solar power and battery backup support autonomous operation in outdoor transformer installations.
