Sistem Kontrol Dan Monitoring Load Bank 150 Kw Berbasis Android

Abstract

By using automation technology, everyone can do anything without act direct manually. With the convenience offered, the human need for automation applications will always increase. One of The example is control of load bank. Load bank is needed in the commissioning process of medium voltage generating system. The manual operation of load bank is considered inefficient because it is ineffective in time and communication, which slows down the work. Control and monitoring of load bank based on Android is felt to be able to solve the problem. By using a smartphone we can control and observe the power loading system in one time. To apply on the load bank, it require a system which can communicate and perform commands remotely. Remote method can determine which execution will be done through android smartphone. In testing of load bank, control is done at different distances, The distance between the user and the load bank affects the decision-making speed of the device. The response is proper and accurate, the speed of the load transfer process occurs for 1,0 seconds from a distance of 50 meters, and 1.42 seconds from a maximum distance of 100 meters. The largest drop in voltage occurs at load 45 kW in amount of 3.25%.
