The “Automatic Load Sharing Distribution of Transformer using IoT” project focuses on optimizing the power distribution between two transformers automatically using an Arduino Uno SMD controller. The system continuously monitors the voltage and current of both transformers through sensor modules to calculate their real-time loading conditions. When one transformer experiences an overload or underload, the controller intelligently redistributes the connected loads using relays to maintain balanced operation. The status of each transformer — including voltage, current, and load percentage — is displayed on a 16x2 LCD, while a buzzer provides audible alerts during abnormal or fault conditions. The project integrates IoT functionality using an ESP8266 module to send transformer performance data to an online monitoring platform such as ThingSpeak or a cloud-based dashboard. This enables remote supervision, timely fault detection, and preventive maintenance. The system enhances power reliability, reduces transformer overloading, and extends operational lifespan, making it valuable for small industries and urban power distribution networks.
