Abstract

A transformer is a device that changes electrical power from one level to another. This project aims to protect the transformer from damage due to overload by sharing the load with another transformer. When a transformer is overloaded, its efficiency decreases, and its windings can overheat and burn. To prevent this, another transformer is connected in parallel using a microcontroller. The microcontroller monitors the load on the first transformer. If the load goes beyond a set limit, the second transformer automatically takes the extra load. In this way, both transformers work efficiently, and damage is avoided.
