A fault is an unexpected change of the system functionality, which causes deviation of a plant behavior from that which is specified it .The problem of detect the location of fault in transmission line has become complex and expensive which depended on The current mechanism used to detect the fault in power transmission lines approximated by the calculation of the impedance obtained from voltage and current data. The works of this is to find solution of how detected and located of fault in the transmission line Diagnosing fault source is difficult and entire cable should be taken out from the ground to check and fix faults. The project work is intended to detect the location of fault in underground cable lines from the base station in km using a micro-controller 8051. To locate a fault in the cable, the cable must be tested for faults. This prototype uses the simple concept of Ohms law. The current would vary depending upon the length of fault of the cable. In the urban areas, the electrical cables run in underground instead of overhead lines. Whenever the fault occurs in underground cable it is difficult to detect the exact location of the fault for process of repairing that particular cable. The proposed system finds the exact location of the fault. The prototype is modeled with a set of resistors representing cable length in km and fault creation is made by a set of switches at every known distance to cross check the accuracy of the same. In case of fault, the voltage across series resistors changes accordingly, which is then fed to an ADC to develop precise digital data to a programmed 8051 IC that further displays fault location in distance.The fault occurring distance, phase, and time is displayed on a 16X2 LCD interfaced with the micro-controller. IOT is used to display the information over Internet using the Wi-Fi module ESP8266.A web page is created using HTML coding and the information about occurrence of fault is displayed in a web page. At the end of research we have acquired results that it can be determined where the error with high accuracy.
