Abstract: A fault detection system monitors underground power cables using advanced sensors for enhanced reliability. Sensors measure electrical parameters such as current, voltage, and temperature along the cable. Real-time data is transmitted to a centralized monitoring unit for analysis. The system identifies anomalies indicative of faults like short circuits, insulation failure, or cable degradation. Machine learning algorithms predict potential failures before they occur. Automatic alerts notify maintenance personnel of fault locations and severity. The system reduces downtime and prevents large-scale power outages. Continuous monitoring enhances operational safety and efficiency. Integration with loT platforms allows remote access and control. Historical data supports preventive maintenance and load management. Fault detection is precise, minimizing unnecessary inspections and maintenance costs. The design is scalable for urban and industrial cable networks. Early detection improves asset longevity and reduces energy losses. Visualization dashboards provide intuitive status and diagnostics.
