Abstract

The problems associated with convention power grids are overcome by smart grid. The major advantage of the smart grid is to use both conventional as well as non- conventional energy resources . While traditional grids are based on coal and fossil-fuels, but these energy resources are diminished now a days. So we move toward the renewable energy resources. Smart grids are allowing two-way communication system between utilities and customers, and it is based on digital technology. Smart grid includes more efficient transmission of electricity, reduced operation and maintenance cost, improve security, based on renewable energy system. The communication technology used is ‘Wireless Sensor Network’ which makes the system cost effective for monitoring, controlling, measurement and fault diagnosis in various domain of smart grid. Zigbee can be use as a communication medium which is based on IEEE 802.15.4 standard.
