Automated Gallery Lighting System and Seepage Water Control in Dam

Journal Title: International Journal of Electrical and Electronics Engineering Research (IJEEER) - Year 2018, Vol 8, Issue 1

Abstract

Now a day energy crisis in India is a critical issue. The present gallery lighting is controlled by manually and is leds to energy loss. The lighting system in the drainage gallery of the dam required during the maintenance work such as drilling and grouting the foundation. With the help of an automated lighting system, it reduces the power consumption of the lighting. This proposed system continuously monitors the pump’s which are used to pump the collected water from the storage tank due to seepage. The main aim of theautomated gallery lighting system is to reduce the power consumption when there is no person movement in the gallery and continuously monitors the pump. The automated gallery lighting system will turn ON the LED with the help of proximity sensor which is attached to the LED set when there is a person present in the gallery otherwise the LED lights will be switched OFF. This system operates in two modes i.e. remote mode and automated mode. In the automated mode with the help sensor, the LED get ON when person present within the sensor range and pump get started when seepage water more than the given limit to the float switch. In remote mode operation, the operator can ON the particular LED and Pump whenever required with the help of PLC programming common in PC or mobile. Things are becoming more simple and easier for everyone in the world today because of advancement of technology. The Automation system consisting of control and information unit that’s going to reduce the requirement of human need. The proposed system going to result in the power saving in an instant. The automated gallery lighting system provides a solution for energy saving, this can achieve by sensing an approaching person using the proximity sensor and then switching ON particular LED set on that range. As the person passes away from the particular range of the sensor the LED light set disconnected automatically with time delay. Buy this lot of energy get saved. In the present system, automated gallery lighting system light gets turned on automatically whenever the person enters the particular PIR sensor range. In order to decrease the problems of large energy consumption in an existing gallery lighting system, an automatic control system of gallery lighting is proposed. With the help of this system, it can save 80% of the energy consumption of the existing. The primary distinction between Microcontroller and PLC is that the PLC can operate in different a condition such as dust, moisture, heat, cold etc and the facility for extension of input and output arrangements
