1.ABSTRACT: Electric power is a fundamental utility in modern society. Power systems today are based on technology that was mainly developed for one-way power flows from large power plants to generally passive customers at the receiving end of the network. Making grids “sm\arter” will help to alleviate many of the challenges that power systems are currently facing and that will occur with increasing frequency in the future, such as variable-output renewable, distributed generation, electric vehicles, under-investment in grid infrastructure, and more. The Power Grid is not a new grid infrastructure. It is an integration of four essential building blocks into the existing power system. The building blocks consist of sensor systems, communication infrastructure, control units, and centralized management systems, where the centralized management systems represent the brains of the Power Grid.

2.OBJECTIVE: The main aim of this project is to achieve monitoring and controlling of power grid system for electricity board using GPS and GSM module. If anything goes wrong the Corresponding information will be send to the Head Office via GSM Module. Location will be monitored in GPS that will send to Head Office via GSM module.

4.METHODOLOGY: This project is developed to monitoring and controlling power grid system with GPS and GSM module. This project contains GPS Receiver, GSM module, cable disconnect, short circuit, IR Tx and Rx, ARM controller with LCD and output. If the cable disconnect or short circuit occurs in the power grid that signal will be applied to ARM controller and controller will analyses the signal and activate output to indicate short circuit or cable disconnect has occurred and at the same time if person moves around that area IR Tx and Rx captures a signal and activates a Buzzer to indicate short circuit or cable disconnect has occurred. If anything goes wrong the Corresponding information will be send to the Head Office via GSM Module. Location will be monitored in GPS that will send to Head Office via GSM module.

5.ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES: ADVANTAGES:  Two-way communication.  Control-technologies.  Cost efficiency.  Integration.  Minimal losses.  Security of supply

DISADVANTAGES:  The Power Grid relates to the electricity network only (not gas) – it concerns both distribution and transmission levels.  Power Grids are not new “super grids”. They will not look significantly different from today’s “conventional” electricity grids, transporting and distributing power via “copper and iron” lines or cables.

6.APPLICATIONS:  Perform surveys of both residential and commercial energy consumption.  Demand response system for use on the smart grid.  Monitor systems on-board ships for safe systems operation with fewer sensors.

7. CONCLUSION: Integrating features of all the hardware components used have been developed in it. Presence of every module has been reasoned out and placed carefully, thus contributing to the best working of the unit. Secondly, using highly advanced IC ‟ s with the help of growing technology, the project has been successfully implemented. Thus the project has been successfully designed and tested.
