Abstract :
This paper discusses an automated fire alarms generating (fire monitoring), electrical power consumption monitoring and electrical power quality monitoring (power monitoring) system. The system is designed for industrial and home usage. This system is capable of detecting fire and sending the alarms via mobile messages to predetermined recipients. The system also distinguishes between an electrical fire and non-electrical fire. Upon detection of a fire, this system identifies the location of the fire, enables the fire extinguishing system of that particular location and sends mobile messages to fire departments. Moreover the system provides voice warnings and messages for the trapped people to evacuate to safer zones, and also detects the damages of the electrical wiring. The power monitoring part of the system measures and records voltage, current, power and frequency fluctuation parameters. These parameters are also sent to a predetermined location via mobile massaging systems.
