Abstract: An electric shock from a current as low as 35mA is sufficient to cause fibrillation of the heart in the vulnerable individuals. Even a healthy individual is at risk of falling from a high structure due to loss of muscle control. Higher currents can cause respiratory failure and result in extensive and life- threatening burns. The lack of any visible sign that a conductor is energized even at high voltages, makes electricity a particular hazard. An electric field surrounds all the charged devices. Bringing a conducting object such asa human into that field can intensify the field enough for electrical breakdown of the air and an arc to jump from the equipment to earth via that person. The proposed system not only focuses on the safety of electrical lineman but also to provide the feasible system to control power lines. The main components of our project is the fingerprint scanner and RFID. In this proposed system if there is any fault in line the line man keeps his finger in finger print scanner, so that the main line is switched off after the completion of fault work the line man again has to keeps his finger in scanner and switch on the electrical line. RFID uses electromagnetic fields to automatically identify and track tags attached to objects. RFID consists of microchip and coil. To recognize the identity of RFID tag, RFID tag sends the signal to reader,the signal is received by the coil and unique ID is identified by chip. The RFID is present on the shoes, gloves and helmets. If the lineman wears all these things then it will allow for further process. Thus it saves the life of lineman woring on the electric line.The proposed systen is fully operated on Aurdino.
