Circuit breaker monitoring application using wireless communication

Circuit breakers are used in the power system to break or make current flow
through power apparatus. Reliable operation of circuit breakers is critical to the well-
being of the power system and can be achieved by regular inspection and maintenance.
A low-cost automated circuit breaker monitoring system is developed to monitor
circuit breaker control signals. An interface is designed on top of which different local
and system-wide applications can be developed which utilize the data recorded by
the system. Some of the possible applications are proposed. Lab and field evaluation
of the designed system is performed and results are presented.
