With the development and advancement in technology, things changes. As technology helps us to understand its importance like in urban areas, the electricity runs underground through electrical cable instead of typical overhead lines, which occupies less space and is considered as the most effective and efficient way of transmission but the problem arises when a fault occurs in the underground cable and is also difficult to detect the exact location of the fault during the process of repairing that particular cable and the methods in existence till now follow some algorithm in order to identify the location of the fault. The aim of this project is to detect the location of fault in underground cable lines. The proposed system finds the exact location of the open circuit fault. The fault creation is made by the set of switches. The relays are controlled by the relay driver. A 16x2 LCD display connected to the microcontroller to display the information. In case of short circuit the voltage across series resistors changes accordingly, which is then fed to an ADC to develop precise digital data to a programmed Arduino micro controller kit that further displays exact fault location from base station in kilometers.
