Smart Transformer Load Balancer
This paper presents a smart load management system for enhancing the efficiency and reliability of electrical distribution networks through dynamic transformer load balancing.Transformers, as static devices, facilitate power transfer between circuits by altering voltage and current while maintaining a constant frequency.The proposed system employs an Arduino Uno microcontroller to continuously monitor the load (in amperes) on individual transformers in real time.When a transformer approaches or exceeds its rated capacity, the system autonomously redistributes the excess load to an alternate transformer or initiates a controlled shutdown to prevent equipment failure.This approach significantly improves system stability, operational safety, and the longevity of distribution components.The results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method in achieving dynamic load stabilization, thus offering a viable solution for intelligent energy management in modern power distribution systems.
