The objective of this project is to determine the distance of underground cable fault from base station in kilometers using an Arduino board. The underground cabling system is a common practice followed in many urban areas. There are many electrical, telephone and other signal cables are laid underground.
Many time faults occur due to construction works and other reasons. At that time it is difficult to dig out cable due to not knowing the exact location of the cable fault.
Definition
Capacitance is defined as the ability of a body to store an electric charge. The SI unit of capacitance is the farad (symbol: F), named after the English physicist Michael Faraday. A 1 farad capacitor, when charged with 1 coulomb of electrical charge, has a potential difference of 1 volt between its plates.
