Remote Monitor and Controller System for Power Generators

Stand-alone power generating sets have become a source of alternative power supply in Nigeria for decades now, especially for business owners, corporate bodies, industries, as well as individuals, due to the epileptic condition of the electric power utility. The proper management, as embodied in the control and maintenance of such systems, has remained a source of concern as power failures are critical to the productivity of such users, especially industries and businesses. In this paper, a Remote Monitor and Controller System (RMCS) for power generators is designed to improve the operation and maintenance of power generators. The RMCS, which includes both a hardware module and software, provides a functionality that allows a power generator to be controlled and monitored from a remote location
