Abstract:Â Electrocution has serious consequences for humans and animals, and can result in death in some cases. Electrocution is one of the most common issues in forest areas and a few agricultural fields. Forest guards were particularly vulnerable to electrocution during the rainy season and due to the invisibility of the condition. Forest guards are electrocuted in the forest due to electrical power lines, and some of them lose their lives by directly touching the electrical lines or when supply lines leak. A device has been developed to detect the electrocution condition, and it is described in detail in this article. This suggested gadget will identify electricity lines and provide a warning signal to the user. The prototype model's functionality has been validated at various work sites where power lines are present.
Keywords: Arduino Nano, Boost converter, Counter IC, signal receiver, battery level indicator, voltage display.
