With the rapid advancement in artificial intelligence (AI), automation, and innovative infrastructure, the demand for electrical power has increased exponentially over the past century. Population growth is another major factor contributing to this continuous rise in energy consumption. To address the growing energy crisis—particularly the challenges related to excessive power demand and transformer protection—an Automatic Load Sharing System for Distribution Transformers using IoT is proposed. The primary objective of this system is to prevent transformer overloading, which significantly affects transformer efficiency and reliability. Overloading causes frequent power failures, overheating of windings, and, in severe cases, transformer burnout. These failures not only increase maintenance costs but also demand considerable manpower for transformer replacement. Ensuring the protection of distribution transformers from overloading and maintaining a stable, uninterrupted power supply to both industrial and domestic consumers are key challenges for modern power distribution networks. The proposed Automatic Load Sharing System offers an effective solution to these issues. The system employs a microcontroller-based control mechanism, where two distribution transformers are connected in parallel. The microcontroller continuously monitors the load on the primary transformer and compares it with a predefined reference value. When the load exceeds the threshold, the excess power demand is automatically transferred to the secondary transformer. This dynamic load sharing mechanism ensures optimal utilization of both transformers, enhances reliability, and prevents potential damage due to overloading.
