| dc.description.abstract | Remote monitoring and controlling of the power grid equipment is an important issue for the power/energy management department which is normally done manually, or using an expensive PLC and SCADA system. With the emergence of the internet and computational era, a smart monitoring and reliable controlling system over the entire substation equipment is highly desirable that can be achieved by introducing the Internet of Things (IoT) technology. IoT is the network of physical devices embedded with electronics, software, sensors, actuators and network connectivity which have the ability to identify, collect and exchange the data. Each thing is uniquely identifiable through its embedded computing system and able to interoperate within the existing internet infrastructure. This project proposed an IoT based network strategy for monitoring and controlling the grid so that managing time and resources can take place as efficiently as possible. | en_US |
