Thesis (Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering) -- University of Rizal System-Morong.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The study entitled DEVELOPMENT OF CURRENT AND THERMAL MONITORING DEVICE FOR ACTIVE ELECTRICAL FEEDERS was conducted at the University of Rizal System-Morong Campus during Academic Year 2014-2015. This study was established for securing the safetiness of the students in the University of Rizal System-Morong. The researchers used a descriptive-developmental way of studying for gathering all the data that they needed. The pieces of information that were obtained came from internet, electrical engineering books, and expert in electricity. The researchers tested this device under the observation of some expert at the University of Rizal System-Morong. The researchers developed a current and thermal sensor, using Arduino software for programming the device, gizDuino X, ATmega1281 for executing the commands, LM35 for sensing temperature and Honeywell CSLA2EL for sensing the current. This device was made for monitoring the thermal and current on active feeders, we the researchers made a program device to collect data namely current and thermal sense that stored on SD card. The researchers also created an alarming features on the device which triggered, when the feeders exceeded its thermal or current capacity. This study was made to know the condition of wires on every electrical feeders. And to give to the owner or management an idea for deciding for the replacement of wire in electrical feeders. However, the researchers concluded that the level of acceptability in term of applicability and workability was verbally interpreted as "much accepted" and in term of accuracy it was verbally interpreted as "accepted" The developed device was a useful tool for overloading protection and monetizing its current and temperature.
